Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the subject of managing wilderness recreation carrying capacity, a complex issue demanding careful consideration from resource managers. It acknowledges the inevitable changes that accompany wilderness use, extending the focus beyond solely ecological impacts to…incorporate the social dimension of the experience. The author explores visitor perceptions of solitude, conflicts between user groups, the impact of large parties, and the dynamics of use and satisfaction. With an understanding that wilderness users hold different attitudes and definitions of what constitutes an appropriate wilderness experience, the book introduces a "purism" scale for classifying visitors based on their adherence to the wilderness ideals outlined in the Wilderness Act. This detailed examination of visitor attitudes provides valuable insights for land managers to balance preservation objectives with the growing demand for wilderness recreation. By defining the limits of acceptable change, informed decisions can be made regarding rationing or other management measures to preserve the wilderness experience while accommodating public use. The book's comprehensive analysis of visitor perceptions and preferences offers a structured approach to managing carrying capacity, ensuring a sustainable balance between wilderness protection and recreational enjoyment.
