Why we invest so much in training outdoor leaders...

"The cutting edge of challenge, it seems, can and does make people stronger, particularly when the salve of social support is applied."
-James Neill and Katica Dias, "Adventure Education and Resilience." Journal of Adventure Education and Outdoor Learning 2, no. 1 (2001): 41
"One of the most powerful outdoor teaching strategies involves motivating the participant to learn by creating the ‘need to know.’  Outdoor leaders can facilitate situations that motivate participants to seek knowledge and skills.  The leader does this by placing the participants in a situation where they seek knowledge and skills in order to accomplish the task."

-Bruce Martin et. al., Outdoor Leadership Theory and Practice  (Champaign: Human Kinetics, 2006), 182.
