Title	Trends in wilderness visitors and visits :: Boundary Waters Canoe Area, Shining Rock, and Desolation Wildernesses
Creator	Cole, David N.
Contributor	Watson, Alan E. ; <br>Roggenbuck, Joseph W. (Joseph William), 1945- ; <br>Intermountain Research Station (Ogden, Utah)
Description	Changes in wilderness visitors were studied over 12- to 21-year periods in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area, MN, Shining Rock, NC, and Desolation, CA. Only five of the 83 variables assessed changed consistently in all wildernesses. Visitor age and educational attainment increased, as did the proportion of visitors who were female and who had been to other wildernesses. Visitor evaluations of litter in the wilderness also improved. Typical wilderness visits were relatively unchanged, as were visitor preferences for wilderness conditions and management.
