Title	Effects of subdivision and access restrictions on private land recreation opportunities.
Creator	Cordell, H. Ken.
Contributor	English, Donald B. K. ;<br> Randall, Sharon A. ;<br> Rocky Mountain Forest and Range Experiment Station (Fort Collins, Colo.)
Description	Continuing conversion of woodlands, greater restrictions on recreational access, and subdivision are trends seeming to have important implications for future public recreation supply. The nature of these implications has not been adequately explored in previous research, a void that has led to questions about the actual effects these factors have on future recreational potential and use of private rural lands. In 1992 a survey of a sample of landowners in Indiana, Georgia and New York was conducted to help clarify the effects of subdivision and access restrictions on recreation potentials and use. In general, the findings of this study indicate that subdivision, leading to more tracts of smaller acreage size, has a negative impact on the number of persons not having a direct relationship with the owner who have access, but a negligible effect on actual amount of use. Access restrictions, such as leasing or posting, however, seem to have an overall positive effect on availability and use. As a result, previous assumptions about the effects of subdivision and access restrictions will have to be reexamined.
