In this environmental call to action, Laura and Guy Waterman look
beyond preserving the ecology of the backcountry to focus on what
they call its spiritual dimension--its fragile, untamed wildness.
"Without some management, wildness cannot survive the number of
people who seek to enjoy it," they write. "But with too much
management, or the wrong kind, we can destroy the spiritual
component of wildness in our zeal to preserve its physical side."
Trailside huts and lodges, large groups seeking "wilderness
experiences," federal and state regulations, and technology such as
radios, cell phones, global positioning devices, and emergency
helicopters, all have an impact on our experience. With humor and
insight, the Watermans explore these difficult wilderness
management issues. They ask us to evaluate the impact that even
"environmentally conscious" values have on the wilderness
experience, and to ask the question: What are we trying to
preserve?
