title = "Communication and Cultural Significance in Two Danish Outdoor Facebook Groups: “Check Out My Campfire, See My Big Catch – I Am an Outdoor Person!”",
abstract = "Within the last decade, the use of new technologies and digital media has increased in outdoor cultures in different ways. The development, often referred to as a {\textquoteleft}double-edged sword{\textquoteright}, causes some concern and may represent both challenges and new possibilities to people{\textquoteright}s outdoor practices. Social media are increasingly being used as part of informal non-profit virtual networks with a focus on nature experiences. This chapter presents findings from a study aiming to explore how Danish outdoor Facebook groups can be understood as a cultural phenomenon by gaining insights into how networks serve as platforms for engagement and participation in active outdoor life.",
