Hate to see the usage down a bit. Interesting to see that day use self-serve permits are up a bit. Those people may be buying dinner in town after their paddle, which helps bring in some money to the local economy.

And they said there would be no math.


This is great. Thanks ever so much for posting!

One thing that sticks out to me is the almost doubling of the Senior Interagency Passes since 2010 (See page 8). Wow! Guess everyone is getting older. I have a pass now, and used it the first time last year. Plan to use it again the the BWCA this Fall, and again next Spring in Rocky Mountain National Park when I head out there for a combination sales meeting/vacation trip.

Thanks for sharing. It would be nice to see the backup numbers by entry point.
