About this Project

The “Dry Canyon Preservation and Recreation Use Study” focuses on the Dry Canyon urban park in Redmond, Oregon, a 7.8-mile trail popular for various activities. Despite its popularity, little is known about the users and their experiences. The study aims to survey these users to understand their activities, use density, and future expectations for the park. The project involves interviewing trail users, using trail counters to measure usage rates, and understanding community members’ desires for park development. Data will be collected in different park areas at various times to ensure a comprehensive understanding. The findings will help inform decisions about the future development of Dry Canyon Park, ensuring it meets the needs and expectations of the community.
