This study focuses on the behaviors, attitudes, perceptions and preferences of visitors to Mt. LeConte in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Mt. LeConte (elevation 6,593 ft.) is a popular tourist destination year-round. In addition to the trails that access the summit, there is a backcountry shelter and a rustic lodge, built in 1926, for overnight guests. The upcoming expiration of the Concession Contract for Mt. LeConte Lodge makes it necessary to conduct an Environmental Assessment. This project serves the dual objectives of providing data needed for the Environmental Assessment (EA) and meeting the General Management Plan requirement to monitor visitor impacts on Mt. LeConte. Previous research on Mt. LeConte's summit focused solely on visitor use patterns as measured through observation and trail counts. No information has previously been gathered on visitors' behaviors, attitudes, perceptions, and preferences. To fulfill these goals, this study was conducted with four specific objectives: 1) to gather descriptive data on Mt. LeConte's visitors, such as demographic and behavioral information, 2) to determine what services and facilities visitors use and would like to have available in the future, 3) to measure the impacts of Mt. LeConte's visitors on the natural resource and visitors2 recreational experiences, and 4) to assess visitor satisfaction with the management of the summit area and the lodge itself. The Human Dimensions Lab at the University of Tennessee conducted the survey at the summit of Mt. LeConte during four survey periods over a one-year period between October 25, 2002 and July 1, 2003. Surveys were administrated during each of the four seasons to control for possible seasonal variations. A total of 1163 people participated in the survey. The survey times did not include a random sample of days throughout the year because of logistic and cost considerations, including the physical and financial investment of having interviewers at a remote site such as Mt. LeConte. Managers of National Parks are faced with many social, resource, and policy issues. The challenge is maintaining an appropriate balance between visitation, resource protection, and regulations. The literature concerning visitor and resource management issues is reviewed, as are the concepts of carrying capacity, crowding, coping mechanisms and visitor satisfaction. Difficulties with measuring crowding and visitor satisfaction are also discussed.

In August of 2012, the Outdoor Industry Association (OIA) sent a letter to President Barack Obama asking him to designate the Greater Canyonlands National Monument (GCNM). The proposed 1.4 million acre national monument would surround the already present 337,570 acre Canyonlands National Park, and would include public lands/waterways from five Utah counties. The OIA0́9s goal for the GCNM is to preserve the landscape for quality outdoor recreation by decreasing the amount of off-highway vehicle use and to eliminate the possibility of oil/gas drilling and mining. Given the proposal highlights outdoor recreation use benefits as the main catalyst for justification of additional conservation/protection of lands surrounding Canyonlands National Park, this study surveyed recreationists in the Indian Creek Corridor0́4an area within the boundaries of the proposed GCNM0́4to explore their attitudes toward the GCNM and the management of the area. This study examined how environmental orientation, place dependence, place identity, residential proximity, and recreational activity type related to attitudes toward the GCNM. Environmental orientation and residential proximity were both good predictors of attitudes toward the GCNM and the management of the Greater Canyonlands area. More biocentric-oriented people, and people who lived farther away from the Greater Canyonlands area, were more likely to have favorable attitudes toward the GCNM and were more opposed to land uses such as mining and energy development. In addition, visitors were largely 0́−unsure0́+ if the GCNM should be designated. Visitors felt most strongly that if the GCNM is going to be designated, the process of designation, the land that would be included, and management of the GCNM should be agreed upon by stakeholders before the monument is designated. This suggests a quick designation via public proclamation under the Antiquities Act of 1906 could largely exacerbate the already present conflict over public land management in the region, which would create an even more difficult environment for federal land managers.
