Outdoors There’s Room for a Host of Things
What are “outdoor sports?” The Times’ sports section seems to have a very narrow definition of the term: The attempt to kill wild animals and fish.

Editor’s note: Gustkey has, from time to time, written stories on hiking, hang-gliding, rock- and mountain-climbing, and river-rafting, not to mention boardsailing, surfing and a variety of other outdoor activities. He may even get around to foot races up Mt. Baldy some day.
