That StoryMap reports research and outcomes of two-year mixed methods research conducted at Harpers Ferry National Historical Park (HAFE). This research intended to gather data and information to help support visitor use planning and management at HAFE. More specifically, this research provides information to understand climbing at and inform future management of climbing resources at HAFE. The research objectives focus on components of visitor use planning and management specific to HAFE that can benefit the most from this data and research. This research is focused on rock climbers and climbing resources in the park with the purpose of 1) understanding representations of climbing activities and closures by Park staff and stakeholder groups, 2) disseminating a survey instrument to sample HAFE rock climbers regarding existing use and management perceptions and 3) informing the construction of a climbing management plan for HAFE.
