History

Since MUMC’s conception, the club’s magazine – The Mountaineer – has existed in some form or another.

The Mountaineer – or ‘The Circular’ as it was known – began as a means of notifying members of coming events. Eventually it evolved to include trip reports and articles on mountaineering. In 1961 it was formally registered at the post office as a periodical. The State, National and Baillieu libraries each hold a collection of past editions.

Today The Mountaineer serves to document and celebrate MUMC’s activities and people. It is still regarded as a high quality publication by club standards and is continuing to progress with each edition.
