Throwback Thursday: First Five Covers of Gripped Magazine

As we head into another summer celebrating Canadian climbing with Gripped, Canada’s climbing magazine, we are taking a look back at the covers that have come to mean so much to so many.

No matter how long you’ve been climbing, at some point you picked up a copy of Gripped and flipped through the pages.

Maybe there was an article that you fell in love with, inspired you to travel somewhere or gave you an idea for a new climb.

Whatever it was, it’s the cover image to that issue that sticks with you. We’ll be bringing you those cover images from time to time. Here are the first five cover images from Gripped magazine.
