Back to Basics: Adventure Revisited.
Roycroft, Philip
Journal of Adventure Education and Outdoor Leadership, v11 n3 p23-24 Fall 1994
Contrasts the spontaneity and magic of remembered childhood adventures with artificial irrelevant professionalized adventure activities that result in the disempowerment of young people. Calls for a different style of outdoor leadership focused on coaching and facilitating young people as they apply their own strategies to high-risk areas of their lives and find their way into adulthood.
