The Concept

From the front cover to the last page, content for the 2026-2027 magazine was curated by a local editorial team. The front cover artwork was created by Big Bear-based painter Susan Eyer-Anderson. Inside the magazine, a refreshed design brings a more traditional magazine experience, including longer feature stories. With an eye toward the future while honoring the past, editorial content emphasizes Big Bear’s DNA as an action-sports incubator.

The Numbers

Six years in, and working with the Wanderlust team still feels anything but routine — in the best way. Wanderlust consistently helps us hone in on creative, effective ways to tell our story, and year after year, the collaboration delivers. We always say the latest issue is our favorite, and somehow the next one manages to top it.
