by Christopher Monz, Joseph Roggenbuck,
David Cole, Richard Brame, and Andrew Yoder
Abstract
Arriving at appropriate limits on the size of groups in wilderness remains a
difficult and often controversial management challenge. This paper presents
a review of the state of knowledge regarding group size from an ecological
impact and visitor experience standpoint, a survey of wilderness managers regarding
the current status of group size regulations and a proposed management decisionmaking
framework for group size.
