.Recreation
Three elements of a regional
recreation plan for the Columbia
River Gorge has been unveiled by
the Gorge Commission and the
U.S. Forest Service.
Recreation intensity ones have
been mapped for the entire region,
showing the intensity of recreation
proposed for each area. The ones
will regulate the intensity and size
of recreation uses. Proposed guide
lines include: Zone 4-Parking areas
for up to 100 cars, 25 percent of site
in open space, campgrounds of up .
to 150 units( 10 units per acre);
Zone 3-Parking for up to 50 cars,
50 percent of site is open space,
campgrounds of up to 50units ( 5
units per acre); Zone 2-Parking
areas for up to 20 cars, small rustic
campgrounds; Zone 1-Un paved park
ing for up to 10 cars, unpaved
trails, dispersed camping and no .
facilities.
Most of thedorge has been mapped
for low intensity recreation. In
response to public concern that the
upper limits of Zone 4 are too res- .
trictive, the Commission is consid- ;
ering an exceptions process to allow '
more intense development if spe
cific criteria are met
Fairs are
