Ian Finch and Walk Wild partners with Ordnance Survey

As a young man I always ventured into the outdoors to explore, most of the time curiosity led, without any form of mapping. As my journeys and UK based expeditions matured, so did my requirements to understand detailed topography and landscape, terrain and mapping. I’ve always thought there is something beautiful and magical about maps, I have old charts of remote rivers, even continents and far flung islands - Yet none are more interesting than home. I study them, I even marvel at the colours and contours, and network of trails, those ancient and new that permeate the vast landscape of Great Britain. It’s more than an honour that we have partnered Ordnance Survey - as a thank-you to the Walk Wild community in the coming weeks, and with a very special code, you’ll be able to get your mapping requirements at a discount when you order online at www.ordnancesurvey.co.uk
