Free Online Issue of Wend


Wend Magazine, and excellent publication with articles on outdoor activities and adventures taking place all over the World, is now offering you a chance to check out their latest issue online for free.

The slick web interface is amongst the best I've ever seen for reading a "virtual magazine". You'll have options to turn individual pages, jump to a specific page, or go to the table of conents. In addition, there is a zoom feature to make the pages more readable, as well as options for printing and bookmarking pages. The images are clear and high quality, and you can "flip" through the pages almost as if you had it in you own hands. The entire issue is reproduced in electronic format including the ads, columns, articles, and more. I half expected one of those annoying subscription cards to fall out of DVD drive while I thumbed through the online edition.

After you've taken the virtual issue for a test drive, you can head on over to the subscription page to order the real thing. The five issue one year subscription is only $21 and I can tell you from first hand experience that it's worth every penny. If you're a member of Outdoorzy you can head over to the member benefits page to find out how you can save $3 on your subscription.

Wend is an excellent magazine with great photos and well written articles. If you're looking for something new in an outdoor mag, and haven't seen it yet, then it's definitely time you did.
