@novacationrequiredArticle link didn't work well on Digg, so here's the gist: "The National Park Service is discontinuing timed-entry reservation systems at several popular parks, including Yosemite and Glacier. While these systems have been successful in reducing overcrowding and minimizing im
@codingMarineGoing to Joshua tree for my kids 1st Birthday with my wife and Parents. My wife and I have gone a few times on backpacking trips but will be our first more "chill" trip. Looking for suggestions! Right now thinking we are going to do: Key Views Hidden Valley Nature Trail Cholla
@novacationrequiredSunrise at Crater Lake taken from the window of Crater Lake Lodge. One of the greatest parts of our fulfillment-forward life (which we call /no-vacation-required) is our ability to see so many of the National Parks and their natural wonders. But some moments stand out more than o

@novacationrequiredLooks like we're gonna have to wait at least 2 more years before the Carbonado bridge gets repaired / replaced. Until then, we'll just have to enjoy photos and memories of this great hike and its epic view. https://komonews.com/news/local/final-planning-study-report-on-future-
As the title states, what is your favorite national park? Mine is a toss up between Zion and Arches for the ones that I have visited so far. Went to Bryce and Zion this past summer and both were awesome, but there was just something about Zion that left me wanting to go back.

@novacationrequiredWe're headed to Mammoth Cave National Park, Indiana Dunes National Park, Hot Springs National Park. We're avid hikers (although I understand these are not major hiking parks like we have out west). Would love any can't miss hikes / walks in the parks or hidden gems (breweries, et
