Climbing management plan
National Park Service, Acadia National Park. 1997. Climbing management plan. National Park Service. Bar Harbor, Maine
"PURPOSE AND NEED An increase in rock climbing and climbing impacts at Acadia National Park (ANP) over the last fifteen years and a National Park Service climbing management initiative prompted the development of a climbing management plan for ANP. Diversification of climbing styles and advancing technology have contributed to the increase in impacts to park resources. For the most part, climbing has not been managed in ANP until now. This Climbing Management Plan will provide guidance for park managers and climbers for the next three to five years. GOALS The primary goal of climbing management at Acadia National Park is preserving park resources. A secondary goal is providing high quality experiences for climbers and other visitors.".
