Submission Deadline: March 15th, 2026

Mountain Athlete Journal's inaugural issue will be published in Spring 2026. We're seeking contributors who want to share their creative work in print.

Theme: Movement + Meaning

Issue 01 asks: Why do we feel compelled to move in the mountains? What does it reveal? How is physical expression linked to creative expression?

This first issue will be primarily winter-sport focused, but any and all mountain endurance content will be considered and included.

If you’re a creative athlete interested in sharing your work, please get in touch. We’re looking for artistic & authentic photography, written work like essays, trip reports, etc., poetry, illustration or paintings, or any other mixed media suitable for the print medium. Files should be high-res. No AI-generated work.
