Scientists to Americans: Take a Hike!

Hiking on the declineI’ve got admit, I’ve never heard of the term videophilia, but I have been a victim of it lately.  On the heels of news that hunting is in a decline , it appears that all outdoors activities may be losing interest with mainstream America. The national parks are reporting declines year over year since the ’80s too.

I just ran across this article, explaining more in depth.  Hopefully I can take a little more time to examine the bad news down the road, but hey this is a blog about having fun - right?

    I’ll read the linked article later.

    But MAYBE one of the reasons there’s a decline is because of those groups that are always trying to close down OHV trails… Hehe, biased? :P
