Rock & Ice is a magazine published by Big Stone Publishing focusing on rock and ice climbing. The magazine got its start in early 1984 and the first issue was in late 1985. The first publisher was Neal Kaptain, and it was bought out within the first year by George Bracksieck, who remained editor until 1997. His company, North-South Publications, sold it to Primedia, a company led by Dougald MacDonald and others. The magazine is published eight times a year. It was headquartered in Boulder, Colorado until 2002 when it moved to Carbondale, Colorado.
The cover of the first issue featured Alex Lowe climbing the first ascent of The Fang in Vail, Colorado.
