Volcanoes and Crowds -- Epilogue. 520 2 "Over the past 150 years, people have flocked to the Pacific Northwest in increasing numbers, in part due to the region's beauty and one of its most exceptional features: volcanoes. This segment of the Pacific Ring of Fire has shaped not only the physical landscape of the region but also the psychological landscape, and with it the narratives we compose about ourselves. Exceptional Mountains is a cultural history of the Northwest volcanoes and the environmental impact of outdoor recreation in this region. It probes the relationship between these volcanoes and regional identity, particularly in the era of mass mountaineering and population growth in the Northwest. O. Alan Weltzien demonstrates how mountaineering is but one conspicuous example of the outdoor recreation industry's unrestricted and problematic growth. He explores the implications of our assumptions that there are no limits to our outdoor recreation habits and that access to the highest mountains should include amenities for affluent consumers. Each chapter probes the mountain-based regional ethos and the concomitant sense of privilege and entitlement from different vantages to illuminate the consumerist mind-set as a reductive--and deeply problematic--version of experience and identity in and around some of the nation's most striking mountains"-- |cProvided by publisher. 588 0 Online resource; title from PDF title page (EBSCO, viewed June 28, 2016). 650 0 Volcanoes|xSocial aspects|zNorthwest, Pacific|xHistory. 650 0 Mountains|xSocial aspects|zNorthwest, Pacific|xHistory. 650 0 Regionalism|zNorthwest, Pacific|xHistory. 650 0 Outdoor recreation|xEnvironmental aspects|zNorthwest, Pacific|xHistory. 650 0 Mountaineering|xEnvironmental aspects|zNorthwest, Pacific |xHistory. 650 0 Consumers|zNorthwest, Pacific|xPsychology|xHistory. 650 0 Nature|xEffect of human beings on|zNorthwest, Pacific |xHistory. 650 0 Environmental policy|zNorthwest, Pacific|xHistory. 650 7 TRAVEL/United States/West/Pacific (AK, CA, HI, NV, OR, WA) |2bisacsh 650 7 HISTORY|zUnited States|xState & Local|xPacific Northwest (OR, Wash.)|2bisacsh 650 7 NATURE|xEcosystems & Habitats|xMountains.|2bisacsh 650 7 SPORTS & RECREATION|xMountaineering.|2bisacsh 650 7 Consumers|xPsychology.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00876425 650 7 Ecology.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00901476 650 7 Environmental policy.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00913250 650 7 Geography.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00940469 650 7 Nature|xEffect of human beings on.|2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01034564 650 7 Outdoor recreation|xEnvironmental aspects.|2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01049169 650 7 Regionalism.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01093204 650 7 Volcanoes|xSocial aspects.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01168856 651 0 Northwest, Pacific|xGeography. 651 0 Northwest, Pacific|xEnvironmental conditions. 651 7 Pacific Northwest.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01242543 655 0 Electronic book. 655 7 History.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 |iPrint version:|aWeltzien, O.
