ORGANIZATION: National Park Service

  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.

Volunteers will assist with visitor use management by counting vehicles in busy parking lots and parked along State Route 24 and by counting people on popular trails, both on a timed schedule. There are 2-3 parking areas and there are 5 trail count locations within 1.5 miles or less of paved roads. Trail difficulty varies from walking in a wash bottom, to having a rockier and steeper incline per location.


A total of 144 volunteer hours is available. Volunteers may choose to participate for the full timeframe of the study (May 9 -May 26) or may choose to volunteer for just a day or two. Regardless of the number of days a volunteer chooses to participate for, volunteers will work shifts of 4 hours (from 9a-2p).
