Title	A comparison of carrying capacity perceptions among visitors to two wildernesses.
Creator	Stankey, George H.
Description	Visitors to two wildernesses -- the heavily-used Desolation Wilderness in California and the lightly-used Spanish Peaks Primitive Area in Montana -- were surveyed. Although visitors to both areas had common images of wilderness in a general sense, those in the heavily used area were more tolerant of higher use. They were also more likely to define the area as overused and were more willing to accept use controls.
Publisher	Ogden, Utah : Intermountain Forest and Range Experiment Station, Forest Service, U.S. Dept. of Agriculture, 1980.
