Abstract

Critical to an innovative pricing policy for U.S. national parks to alleviate overcrowding is a measure of the responsive of national park visitors to increases in the entrance fee to the park. A model is presented and estimated for each national park from which a measure of the entrance price elasticity of visitor demand results. Forty-one national parks have an entrance fee, and of those 41 parks there are 13 national parks for which visitors are statistically responsive to an increase in the entrance fee, and these parks form the basis for Chapter 7.
