A lifemap is an outline and guide to a particular form of outdoor life. Ideally it will summarize the hard-won experiences of those who have attempted to live their outdoor dreams.
As my research progresses, along with my own outdoor life, I will add new lifemaps and probably revise and expand the whole idea. Individual lifemap pages will be added to the list in the sidebar as I add them.
To begin with, I envision lifemaps with these elements:
- A cultural nametag, like “Weekend Warrior”
- Main attractions of the lifestyle
- An approximation of the quantity and quality of outdoor time achievable
- Significant obstacles that may be encountered
- Keys to success
- Examples of representative individuals
