Experience & practicality

Two transparent read-time scores. Unknown facts never count for or against a place, and a score is never used as filter evidence.

Experience

Published recreation and setting.

7.2/ 10

Documented depth: 11.5 of 16 evidence weight, from 6 published facts. A low number means little is published, not that the place is poor.

Why

  • Hiking
  • Fishing
  • Kayaking / canoeing
  • Swimming
  • Boating
  • Horseback riding

Practicality

Published logistics: access, cost, facilities.

—/ 10

Not enough data. Only 1 relevant fact has been published for this record, so no score is shown rather than an invented one.

Why

  • Pets allowed

Partially supported: only one of the two dimensions has enough published evidence, so this record is not presented or ranked as the equal of a fully documented one.

Methodology nmr-score-3.0.0. Park-level activities feed Experience only; campsite facts feed Practicality only. Experience measures how much recreation and setting evidence is published; Practicality is the published positive share scaled by how much of the logistics catalogue has been documented, so a handful of positives can no longer read 10/10. Unknown is never treated as a no. Neither dimension is used to filter search results, and “Best” ordering ranks fully supported records above partially supported ones.

Overview

Why this place?

  • Located in Thompson-Nicola, BC at 3,524 ft.
