Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book assesses a self-issued wilderness permit system instituted in Montana's Spanish Peaks Primitive Area. It evaluates the system as a use measurement tool during its first year of implementation. The author, a principal research social scientist, conducted a meticulous study and found that, overall, 53% of visitor groups obtained permits. An intriguing finding is that the length of a visitor's stay was a key factor influencing compliance, with campers adhering to the permit system more diligently than day-visitors, particularly those making brief visits. The study also revealed that self-issuing permit stations situated further up the trail outperformed those located near parking areas. The author provides sound recommendations for raising compliance, applicable to both self-issued permit systems and traditional trail registers. The book is a valuable contribution to the field of wilderness management, offering valuable insights into the effectiveness of self-issued permit systems as tools for measuring recreational use in wilderness areas.
