This course examines natural resource-based providers of outdoor recreation opportunities.  Course content includes the significance of outdoor recreation; the agencies, resources, and programs that provide outdoor recreation and education opportunities; the issues and trends facing outdoor recreation; and the philosophical concepts of public lands, private property rights, access to outdoor recreation, and citizen involvement.  While some outdoor recreation management concepts are discussed, this is not a management course; nor is this an outdoor recreation/physical skills course.
