I think there needs to be designated places like parks where the masses can go get a quick outdoor fix. They should be as easy to access (cheap) as possible. I'm willing to pay people (taxes) for the upkeep of state parks etc. so that there can be wilderness areas where I can go to get away from the crowds.

Cube is right that the masses need to be exposed and educated so they appreciate the wild places and have a heart for conservation. Let them over-use some parks so we can have large wilderness areas. Most people will hurry back to the t.v. before causing too much damage.

The thing that concerns me most is having my access to national forests and wilderness areas restricted.
