Selected Articles from Summit Magazine

Summit Magazine was started in November, 1955 by Jene Crenshaw and Helen Kilness, two ladies from Big Bear, California. The magazine was a monthly publication and ran until 1989. A new Summit - The Mountain Journal, was started in the spring of 1990 by a new owner David Swanson with editor John Harlan III. It was a quarterly publication which ran until the summer of 1996.

I have scanned and put up selected articles which contain stories of climbs and travels. Here is a list of articles and the issue they came from:
