Spring is here! Get outdoors! (But read these magazines first)

Are you the outdoorsy, active type?  There are many digital magazines available through Zinio to get you going - all FREE with your library card!

Backpacker
Published nine times a year, Backpacker is a magazine of wilderness travel, offering practical, "you can do it, here's how" advice to help you enjoy every trip. Filled with the best places, gear, and information for all kinds of hiking and camping trips, each issue delivers foldout maps and stunning color photography.

Bicycling
Since 1962, BICYCLING has been inspiring people to get more out of their cycling passion. Each action-packed issue is filled with proven secrets to go faster, stronger, longer. Increase your stamina; buy the best gear for your money; locate a great ride; improve your performance; perfect your technique; fuel your passion.

Boating
Boating is the world's foremost magazine for boating enthusiasts. Written by experts for those who love the sport, the editorial covers the waterfront -- from runabouts to sportfish convertibles to luxury showpieces, and everything in between.

Canoe & Kayak is the #1 Paddlesports resource for canoeing, kayaking, and whitewater rafting. Each issue is packed with destination reviews and features a different region of North America. In addition, you'll learn the latest paddling techniques, enjoy great photography from seasoned canoeists, and get our expert reviews of paddle and camping gear.

Our readers' hands-on spirit is reflected in the magazine's comprehensive gear tests and personal adventure stories. Whether shopping for a new rifle, searching for the hottest fishing holes this weekend or thirsting for exciting adventure tales, Outdoor Life is the ultimate resource.

Outside readers are passionately committed to leading an active lifestyle. Outside not only motivates readers to uncover and define their own personal day-to-day adventures, but also provides them with the tools, products and information to fulfill them.


At the time of this posting, back issues of Field & Stream are also available (October 2015 and before). 

The Haltom City Public Library is part of the North Texas Libraries on the Go consortium to offer great titles to you.
