Outdoor adventure tourism-A Review of Research Approaches

cracking article- looks at defining adventure - something I need to do.
the recent definitions look at risk as the key factor when considering adventure, but the author considers all sorts of options.
Walle seems to be central to the 'old school' of exploration and descovering new cultures.
Overland trips are used an example- and also the packaging of these trips to reduce risk, but maintain the adventure.
this will be a key text in my definition of adventure in soft adventure or whatever i end up calling it.
