DETERMINING ECONOMIC EFFECTS OF WYOMING'S LOOP TOURS

The Wyoming loop tour program, as evaluated in this study, involved two components. One component dealt with the location criteria and an evaluation of the existing loop tours which is contained in a companion report (MPC Rept No. 94-29). This report contains a discussion of models used in determining economic benefit and the results of an evaluation of the economic effects associated with two scenic loop tours, the Cheyenne and Oregon Loop Tour and the Bighorn Basin Loop Tour. This report is organized in the following sections: Introduction; Estimating Visitor Use; Estimating Visitor Expenditures; Local Economic Impacts; Costs and Liabilities of Tourism; The Methodology of Evaluating Wyoming Loop Tours; Results; Summary (Access, Destination, Egress; Group Composition; Signing; Visitation Sites; Tour Services; Expenditures); and Conclusion and Recommendations.
