Abstract

The topic of wildland recreation is covered in three main sections. The first describes impacts associated with recreation use, what these impacts are, and how important they are. The second part addresses factors that determine the amount and type of recreational impact. This provides an understanding of why certain places are more heavily damaged than others and suggests techniques that might be used to minimize or mitigate impacts. The third part discusses the management techniques available for dealing with impact problems. It gives you valuable information and examples to meet management objectives in wildland areas.
