• W1572337206 abstract "Mountain ecosystems and high alpine peaks are symbolic of a delicate balance between the human need to use and to protect natural amenities. People spiritually and culturally identify with the serenity and beauty of high peaks (Blake, 1999; Blake, 2002), and are willing to pay a significant amount of money to access and enjoy them (Keske & Loomis, 2007; Loomis & Keske, 2009). However, mountain ecosystems are fragile, even with low level recreation use (McQuaid-Cook, 1978). Mineral extraction and other direct uses such as clear cutting have traditionally been used to drive mountain economies (Loomis, 2002). Although such extraction practices are often characterized as unsustainable, there is emerging evidence to suggest that current levels of recreation use can also be damaging to these ecosystems (Kedrowski, 2006). Even if information about environmental and development tradeoffs was available, preferences of rural mountain residents vary about how to define “sustainable” economic development and about acceptable levels of environmental damage. This chapter outlines environmental and economic considerations for sustainable economic practices at high elevations, and discusses the economic value that visitors and residents place on high mountain recreation experiences. Recreation interests in mountain ecosystems has grown exponentially in recent years, and has provided relief to overburdened natural resources where it competes financially with more destructive commercial endeavors (Loomis, 2002). Despite the economic development and non-market value of high mountain recreation experiences, even passive use recreation may be considered unsustainable if it is not appropriately managed. That is, people can love these resources to death. The purpose of this chapter is to examine the delicate, and unique, balance of economic and environmental tradeoffs in high mountain communities in the context of recreation. The question is: how much recreational love can these ecosystems sustain? The chapter proceeds with definitions of “sustainability” and methods for economic valuation. Next is a brief summary of pressing environmental and economic concerns within a case study area, the high elevation Park and Lake Counties, located in central Colorado (United States). The chapter presents results from economic studies conducted from 2006-2010, indicating that both recreators and residents place high value on the high mountain natural resources and lifestyles, even when compared to other natural experiences. Given the high potential for economic development, community residents and visitors to the region must consider trade-" @default.
