SEMANTIC ANALYSIS

The results of our semantic analysis are shown below using the website's language.

They are the main concepts covered by blueridgeoutdoors.com.

Each concept has a confidence score. The higher it is, the more important the topic is relative to the page.

Topics
Fly fishing Confidence: 83% Arrow up

Fly fishing is an angling method in which an artificial "fly" is used to catch fish.

The fly is cast using a fly rod, reel, and specialized weighted line.

Casting a nearly weightless fly or "lure" requires casting techniques significantly different from other forms of casting.

Fly fishermen use hand tied flies that resemble natural invertebrates, baitfish, other food organisms, or "lures" to provoke the fish to strike (bite at the fly).

Piedmont (United States) Confidence: 83% Arrow up

The Piedmont is a plateau region located in the eastern United States.

It sits between the Atlantic Coastal Plain and the main Appalachian Mountains, stretching from New Jersey in the north to central Alabama in the south.

The Piedmont Province is a physiographic province of the larger Appalachian division which consists of the Piedmont Upland and the Piedmont Lowlands sections.

Adventure travel Confidence: 78% Arrow up

Adventure travel is a type of niche tourism, involving exploration of travel in an “unusual, exotic, remote, or wilderness destination.”.

Travelers are highly engaged in involvement with activities that include perceived (and possibly actual) risk, and potentially requiring specialized skills and physical exertion.

Adventure tourism has grown in recent decades, as tourists seek out-of-the-ordinary types of vacations, but measurement of market size and growth is hampered by the lack of a clear operational definition.

According to the U.S. based Adventure Travel Trade Association, adventure travel may be any tourist activity that includes the following three components: a physical activity, a cultural exchange and connection with nature.

Mountain biking Confidence: 71% Arrow up

Mountain biking is the sport of riding bicycles off-road, often over rough terrain, using specially designed mountain bikes.

Mountain bikes share similarities with other bikes, but incorporate features designed to enhance durability and performance in rough terrain.

Outdoor recreation Confidence: 69% Arrow up

Outdoor recreation or outdoor activity refers to leisure pursuits engaged in the outdoors, often in natural or semi-natural settings out of town.

Examples include adventure racing, backpacking, cycling, camping, canoeing, canyoning, caving, disc golf, fishing, hiking, horseback riding, hunting, kayaking, mountaineering, photography, adventure park, waterskiing, jetskiing, rock climbing, running, sailing, skiing, surfing, ATV riding, and sports.
