"dissatisfied." Generally the further downriver a user entered, the less satisfied he or she was 

 with the trip (but these differences are not significant using Chi square). For those entering 

 at the SpUlway, mean satisfaction was highest (3.5); those entering at Little Hole (3.2), or 

 at Indian Crossing, Bridge Hollow, or Red Creek (3.3) all had satisfactions near the level for 

 the sample as a whole. Those who entered in Segment C (Pipeline Crossing, Swallow 

 Canyon) reported a much lower satisfaction (2.4). 



Satisfaction varied for campsites along the river in Segment B. The highest satisfactions 

 were reported for sites just below Little Hole (3.6) and at Indian Crossing (3.5), were lower 

 at Pugmire Pocket (3.3), and were lowest for Red Creek (3.0). 



Table 68. Satisfaction levels versus perceived level of crowding. 



Perceived Dissatisfied Moderately Satisfied Highly Exceeded Total 



Crowding Satisfied Satisfied Expectations 



There is no relation between satisfaction and either the number of people seen or the 

 perceived level of crowding (r = -.01, -.04, respectively). Nor is there a relation between 

 satisfaction and the actual number of boats or people launching from the Spillway (r = .03, 

 .02, respectively). As indicated in Table 68, about the same proportions fall into each 

 satisfaction class at each level of reported crowding (Chi square p=.000). Thus, if 

 displacement due to crowding does occur, it appears that it will not be based on a crowding-
