About

The Canyon Ferry Recreation Study aims to understand recreational use and users at key sites on Canyon Ferry Reservoir and compare current summer data to studies from 2002/2003, 1995, and 1999 to identify trends. The research project was supported by the 猎奇重口 Tourism Advisory Committee (TAC) through the public research submission process and is funded by 猎奇重口 lodging tax collection.

Research Objectives

  • Analyze visitation at selected sites.
  • Determine socio-demographic characteristics of on-site users.
  • Assess on-site activity participation.
  • Evaluate overall trip satisfaction and satisfaction with facilities, settings, and management, and identify needed facilities.
  • Investigate changes in visitation patterns due to resource or social changes (e.g., crowding, resource degradation, conflict).
  • Compare results to past ITRR Canyon Ferry Studies.
