    Kronicle, a first-of-its-kind magazine dedicated to backcountry snowboarding, announces the addition of photographer Seth Lightcap to the team. Lightcap will serve as Kronicle’s photo editor, and he looks forward to launching the new publication this fall.

    “Freeride and backcountry snowboarding have taken a backseat to freestyle for way too long in the mainstream media,” said Lightcap. “Working with the first snowboarding magazine dedicated to the bliss of ripping natural terrain will be both an honor and a call to action—Kronicle needs to fulfill the stoke many snowboarders have been missing.”

    Lightcap turned onto photography trying to capture memories of his global adventures while in college. He honed his eye for an angle working with adventure sports magazines and newspapers based out of Lake Tahoe, California. These days he spends much of his time shooting in the Sierra backcountry come winter and on the singletrack in the summer. His stories and photos have appeared in snowboarding magazines from England to Japan, including nearly a dozen shred publications in the United States.

    With Lightcap on board, Kronicle readers can expect the highest quality imagery, both his own and sourced from photographers around the globe.

    “Striking images leave me in awe of an action, location or perspective,” said Lightcap. “The shots in Kronicle will drop your jaw in all three ways, while defining the soul of backcountry snowboarding and the power of high-stakes freeriding.” Kronicle goes live on newsstands this fall, and will grow to four times annual next year.

• News: Height of Land Publicati News: Height of Land Publications Launches Kronicle, A Backcountry Snowboarding Magazine

  • From: media-75233
  • Description:

    Backcountry snowboarding has arrived. And Height of Land Publications (HOL), publisher of Alpinist, Backcountry and Telemark Skier Magazines is pleased to announce the launch of Kronicle, a first of its kind magazine dedicated exclusively to backcountry snowboarding.

    Based out of Crested Butte, Colorado and Jeffersonville, Vermont, Kronicle will feature stories and images of the people, places and culture of backcountry riding: West, East and around the world. It will also cover the skills and gear riders need to travel farther, safer. Each issue brims with stoke and substance, packaged in a clean, aesthetic print format.

    HOL has tapped Mike Horn, longtime Backcountry Magazine snowboard editor, as Kronicle's editor in chief. "The growth in backcountry snowboarding demanded that we launch Kronicle," C.B.-based Horn explains. "Splitboarding is going off, and more riders than ever are exploring backcountry terrain. Kronicle will highlight all the great things about riding bc, while building a knowledgebase and skill guide for having fun out there and coming back to ride another day. We look forward to working with some of the sharpest and most creative people in snowboarding to develop this content, and the publication as a whole."

    Lisa Branner, co-owner of Venture Snowboards, says the timing is ripe for Kronicle: "Interest in backcountry riding is spreading like wildfire, and it's high time for a publication that caters to the needs of this audience—not only to educate newcomers but also to keep experienced backcountry riders stoked. Who better for the job than the folks at Backcountry Magazine? They've been dedicated to this core audience for years and have the track record, experience, and passion to do it right."

    Kronicle goes live on newsstands this fall, and will grow to four times annual next year.
