Request for Information: Outfitter and Guide Services
Providing recreation services and facilities is a key part of the Forest Service’s mission. To fulfill this responsibility, the agency relies upon volunteers, organizational and commercial partners. Partners help provide an expanded scope of opportunities for people by contributing unique skills, knowledge, equipment, financial resources, and technical capabilities. Although some visitors possess the necessary knowledge, skills, and equipment to enjoy national forests, others may not have the capability to participate in an activity on their own. By permitting commercial services to operate on the Tonto National Forest, this need can be met. Outfitter and guide services offer opportunities for the recreating public to experience the dynamic landscape of the Tonto National Forest. Outfitters and guides can include commercial businesses, nonprofit organizations, community organizations, educational institutions, and they facilitate recreational experiences for individuals or groups by providing services, education, training, and/or equipment on national forest lands.
