[Ken Wilson](/climber/1012/ken-wilson), writing in [Mountain 1](/library/7793/mountain-1) (1969):
> One of the tasks of an editor in launching a new magazine is to give the readership a clear idea of future policy. Many people have failed to understand why we decided to end
the life of 'Mountain Craft' after 20 years and 81 issues.
Why, it was asked, change a proved and popular product? The Mountaineering Association has now merged with the Youth Hostel Association. Mountain, the successor to ’Mountain Craft', will be published and sponsored by the Youth Hostel Association while maintaining complete editorial freedom.
> The attitudes and techniques of the climbing world have
been revolutionized in recent years. Climbing magazines
must change too if they are to reflect the sport accurately. In many ways 'Mountain Craft' had lost touch with the modern climbing world and no longer represented the mainstream of the sport. Rather than make marginal improvements, it was decided that it would be better to start a completely new magazine.
> Talking glibly about the mainstream of the sport suggests that we are going to concentrate completely on the activities of a small elite. To do so would mean excluding the more modest climber who enjoys a less rigorous form of mountaineering than the [Hastons](/climber/710/dougal-haston) and [Boningtons](/climber/729/chris-bonington) of
this world. This is not our aim. We will continue to cater
for his interests, and run regular features on well-known hill walks and classic rock climbs. Space will also be devoted
to publishing landscape photographs in an attempt to capture in a more meaningfull way the subtle pleasures of the British hills which all climbers enjoy.
> But the modest end of the sport will not monopolise the magazine. Our main task is to capture within our pages the great achievements of mountaineering. It is significant
that climbs like the Eiger Direct and [Hoy](/climb/2649/east-face-route) received very scant treatment in climbing publications, while the national press and television devoted considerable attention to them.
> The interest shown in these climbs by the mass media
is not their greatest recommendation, but who would now challenge that the Eiger climb was perhaps the outstanding event in recent climbing history.
> Mountain does not intend to neglect this type of event in the future. It is our belief that anyone interested in mountaineering, be it scrambling or hard rock climbing,
will be interested in reading about the frontiers of the sport, however difficult, and however remote.
