Eleven Point National Scenic River (EPNSR): Visitor survey data from 2004

These data describe a visitor use survey administered from May through early September 2004 on the Eleven Point National Scenic River (EPNSR) (n = 266 usable responses) in Oregon County, Missouri. Survey questions included trip characteristics, activity participation, social perceptions, environmental perceptions, management issues, and respondents’ demographic information. Data were collected from users exiting the river at five different locations.
This study was conducted to update the previous visitor-use data on the EPNSR by developing user profiles to guide future recreational policies and management decisions. The study also explored factors related to users’ level of place attachment and activity involvement theories.
The Eleven Point National Scenic River is also referred to as the Eleven Point River (EPR). For information regarding previous studies on the EPNSR see cross-references listed below.
