Outdoor recreation continues to grow in popularity in the United States and around the world.
Perhaps this is best manifested in the nearly 300 million annual visits to the US national parks.
While we should celebrate this popular interest in parks and related areas, it also presents the
challenging and increasingly urgent issue of how to manage outdoor recreation in ways that
protect the integrity of park resources and the quality of the visitor experience. These can be
affected in many ways, and it is imperative that impacts be minimized. While parks are
established to provide opportunities for outdoor recreation, they must also be protected. Again,
the US national parks offer a quintessential example; the 1916 Organic Act creating the US
National Park Service dictates that national parks are to be managed “in such manner and such
means as will leave them unimpaired for the enjoyment of future generations.”
This book addresses the issue of managing outdoor recreation to protect park resources
and the quality of the visitor experience. The book is organized into three parts. Part I com-
prises five chapters that draw on the scientific and professional literature in parks and outdoor
recreation to develop a systematic and creative approach to outdoor recreation management.
Chapter 1 reviews several conceptual frameworks that can be used to understand the chal-
lenges in managing outdoor recreation and to organize thinking about managing outdoor rec-
reation. Chapter 2 identifies and reviews the potential impacts that outdoor recreation can
have on park resources, the quality of the visitor experience, and park facilities and services.
Chapter 3 outlines the strategies and practices that can be used to manage outdoor recreation,
while Chapter 4 assesses the efficacy of a range of management practices. Chapter 5 organizes
the information presented in the previous chapters into a series of matrices that can be used to
encourage and guide a systematic and creative program of outdoor recreation management.
The matrices are further elaborated in Appendices A1 through A4. |
