Abstract:

Mountain National Forest by the interagency Transportation Assistance Group (TAG) was conducted June 27-29, 2007, on behalf of the U.S. Forest Service (USFS). This TAG report was prepared subsequent to the site visit and documents the conditions observed, transportation issues and considerations, and recommendations arising from the TAG team’s analysis. The site visit and the preparation of this report were facilitated and funded by USFS. The TAG team concluded that White Mountain National Forest is experiencing transportation impacts stemming from peak visitation. Opportunities exist to improve the visitor experience, prevent resource degradation, and partner with surrounding businesses and communities to mitigate these impacts and improve the quality of life for all those who visit. The team recommended further planning studies in several areas, as well as exploration of partnership opportunities with the Appalachian Mountain Club, developing a relationship with tour bus operators, and creation of interpretive materials using new technologies.
