There is a great amount of debate concerning the establishment and use of public lands. While there is a desire for recreational areas and parks, there are also considerations for the preservation of wilderness and wildlife. National parks must determine rules regarding the use of off road vehicles, personal watercrafts, snowmobiles and the implementation of hiking trails. This book examines the growing diversity of recreation on federal lands and the resulting impact on the environment.
