I was getting a little sick of looking at the same Ski Journal on the pot lately, so I just had to get the feelers out and find out what’s been taking Issue 2.3 so long to arrive in my mailbox. I got a quick response….
Hey Steve.
Thank you for the note… We have been making some internal changes which will increase the quality and smoothing out our production. Due to this we have bumped back our next issue to a fall release for shipping in late August. While we wish we were shipping this issue earlier, we now have the option of going green with 100% recycled paper and possibly are increasing the format (size) of our publications. Although these additional changes most likely will not happen to issue #2.4.
Anyways. We are still here and continuing to product the true voice of ski culture.
The next issue #2.3 will be our best issue yet.

Acceptable answer I guess. But a little PO’d I have to wait for more skiing stoke to come out in print. Luckily there is plenty to go around here on TetonAT.com. Hmmm…I just thought of a new place I can use my laptop. 😉
Actually…I got two responses.
Steve,
Thanks for the inquiry. We have recently made some production changes which are designed to both increase the print quality and allow us to become the first ski publication in N. America (perhaps global) to be 100% post consumer. The switch has caused a few weeks delay, but we feel will be worth it longer term. Our current issue is now off to print, for a release towards end of summer, featuring pieces on the Heath bros, Greenland, Lynsey Dyer, Hawaii, Eric Seo gallery and a history piece by Hexcel founder Hub Zemke.
Our subscriptions have continued to grow throughout the year and the industry support we are receiving is continued and substantial. We look forward to another season as skiing’s new voice of stoke — greener and even better.
Peace,
Jeff Galbraith, Publisher

You know I was wondering if mine had been lost in the mail….good to know. They had put out a release awhile back that 2.3 was coming….but it didn’t. Glad to hear mine isn’t lost.
You take your ski journal to the bathroom?! That’s where I read the New York Times. The Ski Journal stays on the coffee table 🙂
Looks like you’re about out of toilet paper.
he he he.
