Insight and inspiration from the Field Mag editorial team, sharing decades of hard-earned experience and knowhow.

Under a year ago the world lost one of its great outdoorsmen and conservationists in Douglas Tompkins, founder of The North Face and responsible for conserving over 2 million acres of wilderness in Chile and Argentina in the past few decades. The recently released short film "Douglas Tompkins: Wild Legacy" is both deeply insightful and inspiring. A true legend.
