Abstract

There were two fundamental goals in undertaking this study. To carry out a public perception survey of a back-country tourism lodge to determine the public (lodge patron) acceptance threshold for visual disturbances in the landscape. To examine the trade-offs between timber harvesting and operating a wilderness tourism lodge to determine the optimal balance of competing uses.
