The 12th of 16 programmes As the Crow Flies
Once we're off the beaten track a good map proves its worth; it tells us so much about the outdoor scene. But just how does all that information find its way from the landscape around us on to a single sheet of paper?
ANGELA RIPPON visits our official map-makers, the Ordnance Survey, to see the sophisticated equipment used by the modern cartographer. Up on the Brecon Beacons, Bernard Price tracks down an independent producer of footpath guides designed for the walker. As they each explore some of their favourite stretches of Britain, Angela and Bernard show us how maps can be used creatively to enhance the enjoyment of that day out in the country.

"Here we are on day seven of the sit-in at the Bluebell Inn. This has now become a village divided; the real battle of the sexes is taking place here, now. The five women inside are still standing firm, although it is said they are now very short of supplies. The men, urged on by friends and work-mates, are also standing firm. Deadlock is the only way to describe what is happening here now....
"The deciding match in the County Darts League should take place here tomorrow night. If the sit-in isn't over then, the men will have to concede defeat.
