We used the System for Observing Play and Recreation in Communities to examine the association between variations in natural elements (ie, season, weather, and temperature) and adults' use of a rail-trail in South Carolina (2006-2009). Most (62%) of the 4,468 trail users observed were walkers; 38% were observed participating in vigorous physical activity. Adults were most often observed using the trail during the summer (32%), sunny weather (78%), and moderate temperatures (54%). When promoting trail use among adults, natural elements should be considered.
我们使用社区娱乐观察系统来研究自然元素（即季节、天气和温度）的变化与南卡罗来纳州成年人使用铁路步道之间的关系（2006-2009 年）。在观察到的 4468 名步道使用者中，大多数（62%）是步行者；38%被观察到参与剧烈的体育活动。成年人最常在夏季（32%）、晴天（78%）和中等温度（54%）使用步道。在促进成年人使用步道时，应考虑自然元素。
