JAMES BRANDON Ask any dedicated camper, fisherman, boating enthu- slast, hunter, how to make the most out of the pristine glories of the Great Outdoors and he will focus his reply somewhat as follows: » Once you know what you want to do and where you - want to do it, it's all a matter of getting fitted out with the right gear. : Following the experienced outdoorsman's advice prom- ises the avoidance of any serious problems during the precious time one devotes to escaping from the tensions of dally living, assuring a return for all -- refreshed and revitalized. * Individual Choices Widened The advice is by no means new. But the emphasis is more significant than ever before because the cumulative growth in the vast number of people who have developed - a burning appetite for periodic returns to nature is rapidly making participation in outdoor recreation a basic nation- wide life-style involving all members of the family, The response to the emergence of this new basic life - style from institutions serving the general public -- state and federal, even many local governments, organizations of citizens dedicated to conservation and expansion of the wilderness and park lands of the nation, and the re- sourcefulness of industry in production of equipment and gear for all manner of outdoor recreation -+- has widened the choices indi- viduals now have in seeking outdoor fun, ~ The broadened interest in escaping to the spirit lift- ing, revitalizing return to <fnature.. is being accom- plishéd by an extension of the dimensions of the many opportunities so eagerly sought- by so many more people. The Time Factor Take this matter of time --as one of the basic dimen- _ slons. The additional days, long weekends, even extra hours of leisure have added opportunities for amore folk -- to get back to nature more often than just during va- cation time. .- Take this matter of facil- ities -- planned places for people to go to. Here too there has been an expan- sion of the dimension offer- ing easier access to an in- finite variety of outdoor pleasure, from rugged woodlands for campers and for lazy-bones. who just want to relax at handsome resorts featuring participat- ing sports available at will. The fact is, as has been noted before, that the op- portunities - for satisfying the hunger for escape actu- ally can begin in one's own private slice of the Great Outdoors--this is one's own backyard, 'This can be a place for something more than en- tertaining friends with "cook outs." It can be the area where the. kids get their first-experience camp- ing out now that such effi- client. equipment as "pop" tents, that should also go on vacation, is available. It can be an area in which dad tries out his new fish- ing gear, teaches mom and maybe the kids, too, how to cast. Of Growing Appeal It can be the scene for introducing mom, and dad too, to the graceful and challenging sport of arch- ery, now rising in popu- larity. : Very important, it can be ° utilized as the location for a "shakedown camp-out" in which all members of the family participate to make sure all preparations and gear needed for the coming' vacation are properly as- sembled and that all mem- bers of the family know just what specific duties will be required of them "in the fleld." Finally, aligned with the dimension of time as broad- ening the opportunities for enjoyment of the Great Outdoors, is modern trans- port, thanks to resourceful- ness of the builders of Rec- reational Vehicles.
