Abstract
Minnesota Sea Grant and the University of Minnesota
Duluth Bureau of Business and Economic Research conducted
the Cook County Winter Trail-based Visitor Study in
the last quarter of 2002 (an atypical winter with little snow).
Research assistants contacted a random sample of 162
households in Cook County, MN, by phone. A random
adult in the home was asked a short set of questions about
visitors who cross-country (x-c) ski and snowmobile in
Cook County (65% cooperation). Additionally, 96 randomlychosen
Cook County hospitality businesses were interviewed
using the same questions (53% cooperation).
The 51 business respondents and the residents, broken
into two groups of 31 business owners or managers, and
74 non-business respondents, did not differ much in their
perceptions of winter visitors. However, statistically significant
differences in views are seen between respondents
when grouped by their winter recreation participation (ski
only, snowmobile only, both, and neither).
