Other stretches of river within the monument, <br />such as Lodore to Echo Park or Echo Park to Split Mountain, can be <br />floated in one day, but accessibility and river mileage make Split <br />Mountain Gorge a more practical day trip. <br /> <br />In order to expand day use opportunities on the rivers and to facilitate <br />the procedure for obtaining a day use permit, trips launching at <br />Rainbow Park will be managed independently of trips launching upstream. <br /> <br />During the primary use season, a maximum of four trips per day, <br />two connnercial and two nonconnnercia1, will be permitted to launch <br />at Rainbow Park. All trips must launch before 11:00 a.m. in order <br />to reduce encounters between day use and multi-day parties and to <br />minimize congestion at the Split Mountain boat ramp. <br /> <br />During the low use season, Rainbow Park launches will be restricted <br />to one trip per day. <br /> <br />Camping <br /> <br />The canyon-bottom ecosystem within the monument is limited in both <br />area and distribution. Extensive human use of terrestrial areas <br />has resulted in soil compaction, inhibition of vegetative growth, <br />reduction of litter cover, unnatural increases in scavenging wildlife <br /> <br />{- <br /> <br />8 <br />
