Characterizing and comparing backcountry trail conditions in Mount Robson Provincial Park, Canada

Article Abstract:

Two backcountry trails located within the Mount Robson Provincial Park boundaries in British Columbia, Canada, are compared in order to find the type of ecological characteristics and the effect of topographical use level and management on trail degradation. The results have concluded that effective trail management can mitigate many ecological problems that have resulted because of the natural topographical conditions and use levels.
