Abstract

After several years of dramatic increases, visitor use in Yosemite National Park has leveled off to an average of 2.4 million visits per year. Coincident with this decline in the growth rate, there have been some changes in visitation trends and patterns. Data collected in the park show that the average length of stay has decreased to less than 32 hours and that the average number of visitors per vehicle has dropped to slightly less than three.
