Abstract

This paper is not rigorous in the academic sense. It does not set out to propose or test a theory. Nor does it seek to make sense of carefully collected data. Rather, I am attempting to describe the intuitive sense making process of my own mind reconciling things I have noticed in my experience working with people outdoors. In writing this way I am keeping to a tradition of experiential learning described by John Heron as Manifold Learning (Heron, 1989). While this is not widely accepted as a rigorous approach it is, I believe, a rational one that allows the imagination and lay knowledge to openly compliment the conceptual mind and expert knowledge.
