Approach
Maintain safe access at the beginning and end of the summer recreation season
Tactics
- Educate the public about risks associated with early- and late- season access
- Open trails
- campgrounds
- and facilities earlier in the season
- Limit access when public safety is a concern
- Implement adaptive management—alter management as the length of the recreation season changes
