Climbing Magazine Covers No. 182 & 183 (Feb–Mar 1999) - Dan Osman Final Days
Magazine literature showing two issues of Climbing magazine, including a Dan Osman feature cover.
This image shows two issues of Climbing magazine laid side by side, photographed on a light towel — not an automotive document. The left cover is issue No. 182, dated February 1, 1999, featuring a climber in a yellow shirt stemming a wide sandstone crack; cover teasers include "Hot female alpinist Vera Wong," "Ice gloves put through the wringer," and "Troublesome toenails?" The right cover is issue No. 183, dated March 15, 1999 ($4.95 US / $6.95 CD), featuring Dan Osman in a harness with cover story "Dan Osman: His final days," describing his November 23 rope jump of over 1000 feet of free fall from atop Yosemite's Leaning Tower, with friends in Tahoe listening on his cell phone as he counted down, yelled "See ya!," and then heard the wind roar as he approached terminal velocity, "and then nothing" (story on page 86). Additional teasers on issue 183 include "Vail Ice — The Complete Guide," "Tom Frost — Still Nailing," and "Verm Disses the V System." A reader learns the issue numbers, dates, prices, and cover story contents; nothing relates to a 2003 Jeep TJ or any vehicle.
