Land Use ~ <br /> <br />Visitor Perceptions <br />A survey ofYampa River users was conducted June 18 through mid-September 200 I. The two-page survey <br />addressed user demographics, trip details and opinions. Surveys were conducted on random days of the week. <br />A total of 1,136 usable surveys were collected. <br /> <br /> <br />Overall, the survey showed that visitors were "very satisfied" (78%) with their experience. Tubers tended <br />to be slightly more satisfied than anglers. Most felt the quality of their experience was equivalent to their <br />experience in previous years. Of those surveyed, most felt that recreational use has an adverse impact on <br />vegetation, fish populations and water quality, <br /> <br />Open space and parks are the largest single land use within the <br />1/2-mile wide corridor study area, making up approximately <br />44% of the total acreage, An additional 19% of the corridor <br />remains vacant, privately-owned land, but without any fonnal <br />protection, The remaining 36% of the corridor is developed, <br />most of which is either commercial/industrial or residential. <br /> <br /> <br />.~ <br /> <br />1-1 ' <br />r I <br />('..... <br />\ ..
