The Recreation Opportunity Spectrum (ROS) methods have used static measures such as spatial zones for settings and activities. However, visitor perceptions, activities, and experiences are dynamic and not always localized within a single and static ROS zone. The ROS framework could be enhanced by methods that document common movements across time and space during peoples' recreation engagements. This paper adds movement as a third pillar to the ROS conceptualization. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the improved utility of event mapping methods over traditional ROS mapping techniques by comparing an ROS map with an event map derived from research in the Spruce Knob-Seneca Rocks National Recreation Area. Visitors were interviewed on-site using a structured instrument (n = 176). Six common events were mapped and compared with the ROS map. Results suggest that vectors, lines, points, and other symbols complement ROS polygons and better address movement during recreational events
