Section 1.0 provides an introduction and background to the park and pertinent laws and regulations. Section 2.0 goes into detail of the natural and cultural history of Lehman Caves. This history includes how infrastructure was built up in the cave to allow visitors to enter and tour, as well as visitation numbers from the 1920s to present.

    BRISTLECONE GREAT BASIN NATIONAL PARK SUMMER, 1990 INFORMATION ACTIVITIES Welcome to Great Basin National Park Welcome to Great Basin National Park; an area of surprising beauty and diver­ sity. As the nation's 49th national park, Great Basin enters a select corps of the finest and most valued portions of this nation's heritage which are protected as units of the National Park System. A concept which began with Yellowstone National Park in 1872 and has spread throughout the country and, indeed, around the globe, now has incorporated one of the most superlative examples of Great Basin geology, biologic diversity and scenic grandeur. As you visit Great Basin National Park this season, we hope that you take ad­ vantage of the naturalist programs and activities which will provide a greater understanding of this special place. Join a ranger on a walk to an ancient grove of bristlecone pines, or attend an evening campfire program to learn more of the history, geology or wildlife of the park. Schedules and program descriptions are to be found elsewhere in this newspaper. We sincerely believe that a more com­ plete understanding of what you see here, will help to enhance your appre­ Park Drafts Management Plan ciation of the park.
