Abstract:

This report is a nationwide perspective of the management of mountain lands through the expressed thoughts and impressions which the managers of these lands have given. Furthermore, it is a critical review of management. It is important to observe that those responding represent a cross-section of managers within the agencies concerned, throughout New Zealand. This is important in order to get a true nationwide picture of the management of mountain lands. In summary, this study has involved a significant number of managers with wide regional distribution. All agencies involved in the management of mountain land recreation are represented, as are all management levels within those agencies. The data presented represent uninhibited and honest concerns of the managers. I suggest that conflict and lack of cooperation appear to be two of the major stumbling blocks to proper management of New Zealand mountain lands. Accordingly, this report addresses mountain land management within the framework of conflict and cooperation.
