I haven't been a steady member over that period but I too will review old issues of both magazine versions when I'm on a stationary trainer in the winter....and dream. It is the one magazine I keep and try to read in little chunks and savor during the long wait unil the next one comes in the mail. A good organization and part of the $40 is tax deductable I believe.

+1 on ClemY's suggestion of Backpacker magazine - especially their annual gear guide.
