If you’re reading this right now, chances are you’re an avid outdoor enthusiast like us. What makes Outside special is our shared love of being outdoors—and the adventures that bond us, challenge us, and stay with us long after we return home.
It doesn’t matter whether your adventure beat is hiking, biking, kayaking, skiing, or climbing. Outside editors love to tell your stories of misadventure, triumph, heartbreak, and bravery in the backcountry. That’s why we’ve dedicated an entire column to telling stories of what it feels like to accomplish a daring feat, from running a marathon up a volcano to walking 18,000 miles across the world. Some stories, we’ve found, have to be told directly from the person who experienced them.
And other stories, we’ve subsequently discovered, just sound better when someone else reads them to you.
That’s why Outside recently launched a text-to-speech feature, making it easier to immerse yourself in tales of outdoor adventure while, well, getting outside yourself. Now, thanks to this new audio feature, our favorite adventure stories are much easier to consume on the go. Listen to your favorite Outside classics, daring rescue stories, and breaking news while you get outside—where we all know you would prefer to be anyway.
Audio versions of our stories are only available to Outside+ subscribers. If you’re ready to step away from your screen and instead stoke your spirit of adventure, sign up for an Outside+ membership here.
