How Crowded Is Washita Battlefield National Historic Site in November?

November runs about 1× Washita Battlefield National Historic Site's average month, which makes it an average month here — roughly 8% of the park's yearly visitors come in November.

In a typical November the park sees roughly 1,000 recreation visits, based on National Park Service monthly counts from 2002 to 2025.

That makes November the 7th-busiest of the park's twelve months, sitting between the October peak (1.3×) and the January low (0.6×).

On our Best Time to Visit score November rates 44/100 ("Poor"), versus the top-rated August at 57/100 — 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 60°F and an overnight low around 38°F, with about 1.3" of precipitation.

That average of about 49°F is cool, so layers and a shorter daylight window matter.

Because June, July and August together draw about 29% 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 10.1 hours of daylight in November to explore — between the 9.6-hour midwinter low and the 14.4-hour summer high.

Park-wide, 2025 drew 11,048 recreation visits, down 10.7% from 12,369 in 2024.
