An article about the second death in Baxter in two days contained interesting stats about Park usage.
The Chief Boss Ranger had this to say:
Traffic has remained steady at the park during the pandemic, Sypitkowski said. Even though parking limits have been set at about 50 percent of the normal level, visitation is down just 7 percent over last year. Overnight camping visits, however, are up 10 percent, Sypitkowski said, and many are first-time campers and hikers.
