EDITOR’S LETTER Edition 50 Welcome to Edition 50 of Outer Edge! Just in time for summer! With this edition we’re also launching the Outer Edge Adventure Junkie APP – the ultimate guide for gear, adventures and travel! We have hundreds of entries already, and this APP is so amazing – you can add your own destinations as you go! We hope you are as excited as we are! Now, we know how much you love adventure so this edition is packed full of some of our favourite stories of the year! So many people doing so many amazing things! As the weather warms up and we head into the summer months, not to mention Christmas break!, no doubt you’re already thinking of what kind of adventure you can get up to in between all that festive eating, drinking and partying. Here are a few tips: Make a plan to get plenty of fresh air. If you’re looking for an adventure, head into the great outdoors so you can breathe in the air while you’re having a blast. Block out weekends, or an entire week, and head out camping or hiking. You only live once and you might as well make the most of the sunshine. Get some of your best mates on board. As we get older, life gets busier and there’s no doubt it gets harder to catch up with everyone. This is your perfect chance. Plan a few days away camping, hiking, kayaking, climbing – whatever suits you – and rope in your mates to join you. Include a free carton of beer if you need to – just get everyone together and have a great time adventuring. Finally, try going somewhere completely new! Check out the Outer Edge Adventure Junkie APP on iOS and Android to find the perfect spot! And if you’d like to get your story in Outer Edge in 2017, we’d love to hear from you so send us an email: [email protected]. Happy summer, enjoy the holidays and we’ll see you on the flip-side of the new year! Cover Image Credit: Electric Bikes Brisbane www.electricbikesbrisbane.com.au 4
