114: The 8th Principal
Podcast: Play in new window | Download | Embed
On episode 114 we pose this question, is achieving the perfect backcountry selfie really worth it and are we turning nature’s wilderness into a side show? This podcast might be a little controversial but worth the discussion as we seek to understand why so many people are placing their safety at risk for the sake of social media. Is an 8th Leave No Trace Principle appropriate as social media takes on a life of it’s own in creating an circus buzz around scenic destinations that normally would not have a lot of traffic?
