Snow Missions...

I've posted a few times about the excellent Mission: Explore... but now there are Snow Missions! Try some of them out and leave a comment or send me an email with your evidence Or have a go at creating your own snow mission...

If you're a Twitter type, search #SnowMission...

Mission: Explore!

Not the first time I've mentioned Mission: Explore, but as well as the brilliant book (if you haven't bought it, you should) there's now an iPhone app - Mission: Explore London. The app contains a variety of missions located around London, and some "anywhere missions", that, surprisingly enough, you can do anywhere.

You can report on your missions via the app and on Twitter, but it would be great to hear some of your stories here too... Leave a comment or send me an email with tales of your adventures, preferably with photographic evidence... There might even be a prize for the best one...

Mission: Explore

I've posted about Mission: Explore before... But now the book is here, and it's excellent!


Check out the Mission: Explore website, follow @geocollective on Twitter, order a copy of the book, and get exploring!!

Happy Holidays!

At long last...

I didn't get round to launching a proper postcard competition this year... but if you are going somewhere, send us a postcard and we will have a little prize draw! And don't forget to take some geographical photos...

If you are sitting at home wondering what to do with yourself for six weeks:

- check out Mission: Explore

- do some GeoSquishing

- don't forget about Geograph - as well as going out to take some photos of your local area, you could look for pictures of interesting places near you and go and visit them! I've discovered various interesting new places not far from home via Geograph!

Let us know how you get on - leave a comment and send some photos!

And don't forget to keep checking Geogtastic - I will still be updating the blog over the holidays.
