COMPETITION NOW CLOSED! The winners are John Hudson and Lyne Corder. Congratulations guys!
So here’s the deal: starting today, and every Friday, we will be offering you the chance to win some cool and desirable outdoors-related prizes. It could be anything from books, guides or DVDs through to apparel, equipment or event tickets. The competition is called Friday Freebies, and you have just 5 days to enter, because on the following Wednesday we announce the winners – Wednesday Winners! To claim your prize, you must check back on the Wednesday and email us at [email protected].
So to kick off Friday Freebies, we have two copies of Tristan Gooley’s fantastic new book The Natural Explorer, which aims to bring out the instinct for discovery in all of us. You may already know Tristan through his massively successful book The Natural Navigator, and his latest book looks set to be just as well-received.
But what’s it all about? We’ll let Tristan tell you about it: “When researching and writing The Natural Explorer, I imagined myself confronted with the following challenge: Someone is about to go on the same journey twice, once before reading The Natural Explorer and once after reading it. My challenge is to make sure that the second journey is a significantly richer, profounder and more fascinating experience than the first. My sincere hope is that The Natural Explorer is the book that someone would choose to read if they knew they would only be able to go on one more journey in their life.
Each of the 30 chapters takes one of the aspects of a journey and examines the ways it can help us connect with the places we travel to and through. Each is packed with insightful and entertaining examples of the way travellers have used each perspective to deepen their understanding of a place, and therefore how we can use it to enrich our own experiences. Chapters include: The Senses, The Plants, The Changing Mountain, The Coast, Valleys of Ice, The Earth, The Sky and The Weather.
