The 2024 80th anniversary edition is available for pick up at the clubrooms for members.

The Mountaineer — or The Circular as it was originally 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 Baillieu Library at Melbourne University's Parkville campus, the State Library of Victoria, and the National Library in Canberra each hold a collection of past editions.

Today, The Mountaineer serves to document and celebrate MUMC’s activities and people. It is a high quality publication and continues to engross readers with each edition released.
