	Definition of Adventure Travel: Conceptual Framework.../ May, 1997
		The sum of the phenomena and relationships arising from the interactions of adventure touristic activities with the natural environment away from the participant's usual residence area and containing elements of risk in which the outcome is influenced by the participation, setting, and the organizer of the tourist's experience (Sung, 1996).
		As such, adventure travel experiences could be managed by operators at their greatest effectiveness with an appropriate balance between the performance skills to participate in specific activities and the real and perceived risk in a secure, safe environmental setting.
		It is assumed that the nation of 'adventure' had its origin in past leisure or recreation studies and that the volumes of literature generated in the past 25 years could provide a framework for constructing further theory and conceptualizations extended to the adventure travel industry for empirical application.
