I thought the feedback in KD's thread on Powmag covers was really interesting to observe. The TGR board represents a pretty solid group of our readers, whose input we definitely value for your dedication. Since we're looking at a bunch of potential covers for the season, I thought I'd ask for a quick vote of your favorite Couloir covers from this past season. Since we separate newsstand and subscriber (with our Naked Covers), I'm curious to hear about photo choice (action, color, setting, etc) and which one you'd be most likely to pick up.
Thanks in advance,
Graham

edgDo you realize that you've just posted an admission of ignorance so breathtaking that it disqualifies you from commenting on any political or economic threads from here on out?

Jumper... If you mean the Peaks and Passes article on Cooke City's Mt. Cooke and Mt Republic, then it was the December issue shown above (XVII-3). If you're thinking of something else, I'll have to go check the back issues.

It's got to be November. That picture makes me think of a wooded hill by my cottage.

Big Tim would pass.

keep shit simple. Every other mag cover out there is the same. Go naked cover for every issue, including newstand copies. It keeps the suspense going. Make the content inside a surprise to the readers while at the same time making the cover a piece of art rather than a bunch of words on top of a nice photographic image.
Try something new this year and I bet you will be pleased.This space was moderated.
