摘要

Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks hosted 1,697,617 recreation visits in 2012. Adjustments for visitor group size and re-entries resulted in 403,240 visitor group trips to the parks in 2012. Based on a 2012 Visitor Services Project survey conducted August 2-8, 29% of these visitor group trips were made by local residents or non-locals on day trips that did not include an overnight stay within 80 miles of the parks. Forty-two percent of visitor group trips involved an overnight stay in a lodge, hotel, motel, cabin, B&Bs, etc. outside the parks but within 80 miles of the parks.
