Congress established the 70,000-acre park in 2020, ushering in revolutionary nationwide interest in the region as a destination for travel and residency.

Long a renowned destination for hiking, biking, rock climbing, and whitewater rafting, it now attracts more than two million visitors annually. Officials predicted an increase of more than 20 percent in visitation in its first year; however, the increase appeared to be nearer 70 percent as of October 2022.
