Deep Wild: Writing from the Backcountry

From the unforgiving slopes of K2 to the utter darkness of a lava cave, on the river in a burning forest, on a cliff face wedged into a crack, on one's knees before a rare bumblebee: These are just a few of the places where the 48 writers of Deep Wild 2024 transport us.

This issue also features winners of the Deep Wild Graduate Student Prose Contest and a portfolio of landscape drawings--some realistic, some surreal--by Tucson-based artist Andrew Lincoln Nelson. The cover image is by New Mexico artist Kathleen Frank.
