National Geographic: Adventure Blog Tunes In To The Adventurist

National Geographic: Adventure blog has posted a link back to The Adventurist over my recent post concerning William Brant Holland and his two year ban from climbing in Nepal.  The link is found in a new feature written by National Geographic: Adventure editor Mindy Zacharjasz entitled “Headlines: Adventure in 60 Seconds“.

“Headlines: Adventure in 60 Seconds” takes a look at the latest adventure, travel, and environmental sectors in a small, easy to read format.  It reminds me of a daily digest of what’s going on in the world of adventure, without having to course through 20 different websites.  It is well put together and reads smooth, much like everything else National Geographic does.

Go check out the latest addition to the National Geographic: Adventure blog and welcome Mindy aboard.  We can always use a few more adventure writers and news sources to make our daily web habits a bit easier.  Thanks, Mindy, for the mention!

National Geographic Enters the Age of Blogging

Adventure Sports and Writing is beginning to make some big headwaves in the blogging world.  Many new sites pop-up on a daily basis–almost to many to keep track of.  Needless to say, we were missing the biggest one of them all..National Geographic, until now.

The National Geographic: Adventure Blog kind of snuck up on all of us.  There has been little mention from them about this endeavor, but I am sure it is going to be turning some heads.

Ahhh…National Geographic.  My grandfather introduced me to them  quite a few years ago.  He bought me a subscription all the way up until his untimely death a year ago.  Luckily, when he passed away,  I was able to rescue his NG Video collection from the trash heap.  He was an avid subscriber and watcher.  He knew a good thing when he seen it and taught us to appreciate the world around us.  Without that video collection, I probably would have never known what went on in Mecca, or what lay beneath the Pyramids of Egypt.  Thank-you Grandpa and National Geographic–

The National Geographic Adventure Blog  Takes a look at a lot of the same things I write about.  Adventure, Wilderness, Survival, Those who Live it, Those who Love It, and those who partake in it or wish they did. There is something there for all of us.

Here is just a couple article samplings:

• When Animals Attack: Anacondas, Great Whites, Grizzlies
• Alive Survivors Look Back
• Your Story:  What Saved You?

Offers some great in-depth articles and insight that you just can’t find anywhere else.  Awesome place and I am sure I will be visiting daily.  By the way, if you visit, pay attention to their  ADVENTURE picks, in their left-hand column.  My good friend Kraig’s Blog, The Adventure Blog is mentioned, as well as a couple of others found in my links page...Outdoorzy.com and a couple of others.  Keep your eyes out.  This is going to be one of those Bookmark sites to visit daily!  I am adding them to my Links Page and will possibly put up the RSS feed on The Adventurist tomorrow.
