On our Best Time to Visit score March rates 38/100 ("Poor"). Our recommended month is May: pleasant weather with noticeably thinner crowds (shoulder season).

The daily average of about 39°F is cool, so layers and a shorter daylight window matter. These figures are 1991–2020 NOAA climate normals from the nearest station, about 6.5 miles from the park.

Because June, July and August together draw about 35% of annual visitors, choosing March instead steps outside that summer crush — the single biggest lever on how crowded the park feels.

You'll have about 11.7 hours of daylight in March to explore — between the 9.1-hour midwinter low and the 14.9-hour summer high.

Park-wide, 2025 drew 122,124 recreation visits, down 6.2% from 130,259 in 2024.

Across the past decade overall visitation has risen about 199.2%, so a March visit is likely to feel busier than it did a few years ago.
