Devils Tower National Monument: 1999 Visitor Use Study

Final Report

Description:

The purpose of the study was to better understand experiences sought and attained at the monument by visitors, activities engaged in by visitors, visitors' attitudes concerning the quality and adequacy of facilities currently available in the park, opinions of visitors regarding management strategies to address problems associated with park management, and background characteristics of park visitors. Visitors were asked questions about their concerns related to crowding as well as their tolerances and preferences for alternative modes of transportation. This report highlights the findings of this research. Results of the visitor study and other public input will be used to help guide development of the GMP being prepared by the planning team.
