Blue Ridge Parkway NP

At Blue Ridge Parkway National Park we have started using volunteers to rove high use trails where impacts to natural resources are occuring due to the high volume of park visitors. Having the volunteer rovers collect phenology data and enter it into Nature's Notebook would give them a way to interact and engage with park visitors.
