"It just appears to be part of a national trend. We are off about 2-1/2 per cent from 1969-70, and the National Park Service reports that its attendance is down 10 per cent. "But the drop is in day-use attendance only,"' he added.

"We also recorded“an increase in the revenue-to-operation-cost ratio,"' Mott disclosed. "In 1969-70, with revenues from fees and charges at $6,474,371, we recovered about 45 per cent of our operating costs of $14,313,841. This year, with $7,0747,559 in revenues, we got back 47 per cent of our costs of $15,128,629, a figure closer to our goal of 50 per cent.
