Abstract

The purpose of this project was to give forests in Region 1 of the USFS baseline information on which to build forest-specific needs assessments. This included outfitter supply and demand, national and regional recreation trends, and an outfitter/guide need spectrum. This was accomplished in three phases and this report details the objectives, methods, and results for each phase.
