In these heady days of economic crisis and political hoopla, we thought it was high time we at SAGE Magazine turned our attentions West.  The land of frontier aspirations, gold-pan booms and dot-com busts.  Things are bigger out West, we’re told, so maybe they’re better too.

In partnership with the Yale School of Forestry and Environmental Studies’ Westies Student Interest Group, SAGE Magazine is proud to host a new photo essay series aimed at exploring and understanding the North American West. If you’ve got a photo to share or a tale to tell – we want to see it and we’d love to hear it.
