Extreme Geographies

Having spent quite a long time exploring some issues with landscapes, our current unit is called Extreme Geographies.
It's quite short, as the summer term is mercifully short following the longer Lent Term.
It starts with a look at some of the Extreme Places
What about Mt. Everest?
How do people die on the mountain?

Mount Everst infographics - there are plenty of them...
I have a Pinterest page of them.

There are plenty of options for exploring the management of National Parks and similar areas...
There are plenty of National Parks in different areas of the UK, and different contexts to their management. There are also National Parks in various other countries. At Explorer HQ, we recently worked with the John Muir Trust, named after someone who is synonymous with the outdoors and the appreciation of the beauty of nature. I created this book here for the John Muir Trust.

Watch out for the GREAT OUTDOORS DAY, coming to KEJ in the Lent term.
