For all those who love National Parks!
If it has to do with any part of the US national park system (national parks, national monuments, national seashores, national recreation areas, national historic sites, etc) or International national parks, feel free to post it here. Photos from your trips, photos you've come across and like, blog posts, questions, advice or news articles; all are welcome. This is a place to share anything about any of these places. We do remove drone videos of national parks since this is expressly against their rules. We also remove links to outside sites selling National Park-related merchandise and linking to any will get you instantly banned. We also enforce the rules of self-promotion:

Hello, we are staying in Durango and have tickets for tours in Mesa Verde. It looks like it is about an hour to the park entrance and then an hour to the tour site (cliff house). Is that right? Just don’t want to leave too late and miss our tour! Any guidance would be appreciated! Thanks!
Looking to potentially plan a trip to Arches/Canyonlands in March next year. I’ve seen some stuff on the internet saying that March is the best time to go, but the temps still seem quite cool. Would love to hear from anyone with experience at these parks around that time of year.
We are planning a 3-4 day trip to the GSM NP and debating going in March or April. Ideally for work and things we would prefer March.
Looking for personal stories if anyone has visited this park in mid-late March; we have seen some good reports on google but wanted to get some extra input. I know that weather can vary extremely, but we would like to know if snow was a concern for hikes/safety throughout the park, since hiking will be our primary activity. TIA!
A design I made from the 4th park I visited, Great Basin.
Planning a trip to Utah national parks next June. Had originally planned 2 days in capital reef, but it seems that scenic drive will be closed for repair. Is there 2 days worth of stuff without scenic drive?
If you haven't read any of these books, give them a try. Matt and Karen are great and their books make me love the parks even more. Happy reading!
Hi! Currently planning a trip to Jackson, WY /Teton (OCT 5-8) and then Yellowstone (OCT 8-10). I noticed that it was off-season so some tours and activities are offered. Any tips on what to do/see would be greatly appreciated!
Hikes currently planned: Jenny Lake & Cascade Canyon. We're avid hikers, so if anyone has better suggestions on hikes, please send them over!
Also, are wildlife tours in Teton or Yellowstone worth it? Or should we just drive/hike on our own? And is the Aerial Tram sightseeing in Jackson Hole worth it?
Thank you!
