How Crowded Is Stonewall National Monument in November?

November runs about 0.2× Stonewall National Monument's average month, which makes it a very quiet month here — roughly 2% of the park's yearly visitors come in November.

In a typical November the park sees about 26,000 recreation visits, based on National Park Service monthly counts from 2017 to 2025.

That makes November the 5th-busiest of the park's twelve months, sitting between the June peak (10.6×) and the September low (0×).

On our Best Time to Visit score November rates 60/100 ("Good"), versus the top-rated September at 86/100 — pleasant weather with noticeably thinner crowds (shoulder season).

Typical November weather, from 1991–2020 NOAA climate normals at the nearest station, averages a daytime high near 54°F and an overnight low around 42°F, with about 3.6" of precipitation.

That average of about 48°F is cool, so layers and a shorter daylight window matter.

Because June, July and August together draw about 92% of annual visitors, choosing November instead steps outside that summer crush — the single biggest lever on how crowded the park feels.

You'll have about 9.7 hours of daylight in November to explore — between the 9.1-hour midwinter low and the 14.9-hour summer high.

Park-wide, 2024 drew 2,302,641 recreation visits, up 176.5% from 832,650 in 2023.
