I have the Indices for Mountain from 89 through 136, the last was 145...
Since I've completed my initial project for the winter (going through the AAJ for Yosemite references) I thought I might scan these Indices and run them through OCR and provide them in a useful format appropriate for the web.
Does anyone know if there were indices prior to #89? Cynthia Grindley compiled them... Does anyone have these indices and if so would you be willing to make a copy and send them to me? (or scan them and send the .pdf files??)...
I can index 137 through 145... my first was 90 and I have a complete set of 95 though 145.

I have all issues except for 12 of 'em. I start at #4 with a few skips at the beginning and the end. (Way before my time and then I got lazy.)
However, I never had an index. Never saw one. What did you have in mind?

I have the following indexes for Mountain (by issue numbers): 13 - 24, 25 - 40, 41 - 52, 53 - 64, 65 - 76, 77 - 88, 89 - 100, 101 - 112, 113 - 124, 125 - 136. They did about 12 issues at a time, and the quality gradually got better. I don't know if there was an index to issues 1 - 12.
You had to order them from time to time, and I think if you were a subscriber you got sent some. I vaguely recall that they didn't start indexing until the late 1970s or later, and then had to work through a backlog.
They're fairly small print, about 7 or 8 point, and on odd-sized paper, by North American standards. So it might not scan well, or post readably. Let me know, my people can talk with your people, we can do lunch, maybe figure something out. Or I could give you copies when you're here in January - probably 80 to 100 pages total.

Ed, as I remember there were indexes for all. I had the complete collection. I donated them all to the Marriott Library at the Univ. of Utah. I have no idea if the collection is on line - probably not even catalogued.

Sounds like a worthy project, Ed!
I have all the index, from #1 to #145 (well, I am at work, and maybe - as Anders - I do not have 1-12 (I'll check tonight)).
Being European, I find they have the right format, and it could be nice to see if they read well in OCR. But as said: Small typing & colums could prove as good deal of hand-work...

Okay, where were the indices? Did they publish them? Don't recall seeing anything separate. Gimme a hint and I'll check to see what I have.

the indices were mailed about every 12 issues with the magazine subscription. They were separate, sometimes very large sheets (folded to an A4 size?) which came in the envelope containing the magazine.
I'll get a front page up at some point, and test out the OCR on the home scanner here...

I probably have them too, though finding them might require a team of archeologists...

When looking for the indexes I found this letter from 1992: The falldown of Mountain Magazine:
Just thought it was a nice step then to transfer us subscribers to High Mag. I have payment out for 10 issues of Alpinist, and would be happy for ANY substitute. But - alas - that will not happend...

found this little bit in Montain 128 pages 7/8:
'Rush "the Fish" Walling established a route right of Tumbling Rainbow - Tonic Boom (5.12). Tic Toc Boom (5.12a, FA: Roy McClenahan) is right of Tonic Boom and start from Rainy Day Dream Away. Both of the Boom routes are on good quality, steep rock.'
Rush Walling is the index entry...
