Some can be a bit hefty; Grand Canyon and Yosemite run $35 per car. The best deal going is the America the Beautiful Pass, as for $80 you purchase one year of unlimited entry into national parks and national wildlife refuges as well as standard amenity fees (day use fees) at national forests and grasslands, as well as lands managed by the Bureau of Land Management, Bureau of Reclamation and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef4be1b654f9bd5e292f3f/1582207432432-IYQ1Y3FSEKGSVNUGAZR7/image-asset.jpeg P&P Blog - 2024 Fee Free Days in the National Parks - The Best Apps for Exploring National Parks Use these apps to explore the national parks, forests, and other public lands! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef4be1b654f9bd5e292f3f/1535246586821-JS5ZN6CCQYQO8N2NH375/state+parks+cover.jpg P&P Blog - 2024 Fee Free Days in the National Parks - Our Recommendations for State Parks to Explore We’d like to offer up some amazing state parks that we feel are worth a stop!

All the major airlines (and a few hotel chains, like Choice and Hilton) have websites which link you to many stores where you likely already shop, including major department, book, clothing, and home and design stores. By first visiting a shopping portal, then clicking through to the store's website from there, you earn airline miles per dollar spent. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef4be1b654f9bd5e292f3f/1535245842631-MJ2MNVK81RLZR2P6LFS9/static1.squarespace.com.png P&P Blog - 2024 Fee Free Days in the National Parks - Why You Should Consider British Airways Avios for Parks Travel The British Airways frequent flyer rewards program Executive Club’s currency of points, called Avios, offers considerable route and redemption options for traveling to airports that are near national parks; these routes are often at a premium when paying cash, so we like this option for both its versatility and cost effectiveness. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef4be1b654f9bd5e292f3f/1535241115430-F3EBQ8FRYD3HGGT9S6RA/Sun.jpg P&P Blog - 2024 Fee Free Days in the National Parks - Vacation Value Time: VVT We think of time as more of a commodity, and describe this as “Vacation Value Time,” (or VVT, for short). VVT is the point at which you’d spend additional money to get more daytime vacation time, whether that means paying for a higher priced plane ticket to spend an extra afternoon in Glacier National Park, or splurging on a hotel room closer to a destination in peak season to cut down on driving time to and from the destination. In brief, how much do you value your vacation time and how much extra are you willing to spend to have more of it? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef4be1b654f9bd5e292f3f/1535245504633-WJIFPBGYEO1K2CHUGMG2/dog.jpg P&P Blog - 2024 Fee Free Days in the National Parks - Camping with a Dog: The Best Tips for Fun and Safety Shared public lands, or what you might commonly refer to as national parks, forests, and conservation areas, provide the perfect opportunity to enjoy the beauty of nature with your pooch. If you’re bringing your pet along, however, there are several things to prepare for, including safe bedding and having a plan in place for injuries -- not to mention finding a park that is four-paw friendly. Below you’ll find lots of great tips and additional resources to peruse, to ensure your trip is safe as well as fun. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef4be1b654f9bd5e292f3f/1535245138671-7JDEG4Y6K654MYX3WWXX/IMG_4150.JPG P&P Blog - 2024 Fee Free Days in the National Parks - Save on Peak Fares by with Delta Companion Certificates These certificates can be of great value, as many of the more popular parks also tend to be near smaller airports that often command considerably high fares — Glacier, Yellowstone, Grand Teton, Voyagers, and Redwood are all several hours driving from major airports, in some cases as much as five hours away from major hub airports while smaller airports with often pricey fares are less than an hour away. These certificates are awarded upon the yearly renewal of the credit card, so you will have to pay the annual fee; however, you’ll more than cover those costs with an effective use of the certificates. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef4be1b654f9bd5e292f3f/1535246345862-5QPE4XULS5ABDAJ3SM1I/8626ef17-8163-4b4e-a742-d7439506f6d6Original%281%29%281%29.jpg P&P Blog - 2024 Fee Free Days in the National Parks - Discovering Night Sky Programs at U.S. National Parks The International Dark-Sky Association was created in 1988 to help minimize light pollution and to protect the night skies. There are 103 Dark-Sky sites worldwide, including Great Sand Dunes National Park in Colorado, Staunton River State Park in Virginia, Grand Canyon National Park in Arizona, and Enchanted Rock State Natural Area in Texas. The two entities often work alongside each other to preserve what natural night sky still exists. For example, Bob Meadows, a physical scientist and night skies specialist in the NPS Natural Sounds and Night Skies Division took his expertise and equipment to Goblin Valley State Park to help with the park's Dark-Sky designation—at Goblin Valley, one is under one of the darkest skies in the world. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef4be1b654f9bd5e292f3f/1535245575830-K9J05BMQH3E077IY5HAZ/static1.squarespace.com.jpeg P&P Blog - 2024 Fee Free Days in the National Parks - Saving Time and Money on Car Rentals We have distilled our top money-saving strategies for saving significantly on car rentals in a reference list for our readers.

We appreciate the enhanced value when booking domestic awards flights to and from, often smaller conveniently located airports near national parks and historic sites using the Reduced Mileage Awards program. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef4be1b654f9bd5e292f3f/1535245363928-F2EZPD0P8QZ0LI5JUXNS/Amtrak1.jpg P&P Blog - 2024 Fee Free Days in the National Parks - Keeping “Track” of Amtrak's Guest Rewards Exploring the national parks units via Amtrak is in some instances, occasionally more convenient than doing so by plane/rental car.

However, many NPS units also have ties to the creative arts, and are dedicated to honoring and preserving an artistic legacy. We've taken a closer look at parks that focus upon artists, writers, and important creative and cultural pursuits that uniquely reflect and reexamine American culture. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef4be1b654f9bd5e292f3f/1535329304537-4GL0YEE4H6EWDI5PSCQC/A+Look+at+Accessibility+in+National+Lands.jpg P&P Blog - 2024 Fee Free Days in the National Parks - A Look at Accessibility in National Lands Our Interview with Lilly Longshore Lilly Longshore, on Twitter @wheeltraveler, went to graduate school in Texas then moved to the Pacific Northwest to work as an environmental engineer and hike, a passion she shares with her husband. Before she had a chance to spend much time on the trails, she fell while getting up from bed, her two-year old son in her arms, and broke her neck. She is an incomplete C5-C6 quadriplegic. At the time of her fall, she did not know that she had degenerative retina disease, which contributed to her disorientation. She credits both swimming and spiritual practice for the significant mobility she has since regained. She uses a power chair primarily, and occasionally a manual chair, and spends much time outdoors with her family. She serves on the Governor’s Committee for Disability Issues in Washington State and is the parent representative on the Board of Trustees for the Washington State School for the Blind. You can read more about her travels, her recommendations for wheelchair travelers, and her speaking engagements at www.lillylongshore.com. We wanted her take on what is working well in parks for visitors needing ADA access, and how parks can continue to evolve toward increased accessibility. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef4be1b654f9bd5e292f3f/1535331337759-HBAQF7EMLOXQDQMWM88Z/2018+National+Parks+Service+Fee-Free+Days.jpg P&P Blog - 2024 Fee Free Days in the National Parks - 2020 National Parks Service Fee-Free Days The Department of the Interior has released the 2020 dates when entry to fee-based National Parks Service units will be FREE! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef4be1b654f9bd5e292f3f/fdfe10ec-2742-4fb5-9620-80bc11d99d1c/NPSFree+-+1+%281%29%281%29.jpeg P&P Blog - 2024 Fee Free Days in the National Parks Cape Cod National Seashore https://www.parksandpoints.com/parksandpointsblog/northcarolinaouterbanks monthly 0.5 2022-08-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef4be1b654f9bd5e292f3f/fc060ca3-4fd6-40c4-9ae4-a8a0feecc297/4+Enchanting+Coastal+Parks+on+North+Carolina%E2%80%99s+Outer+Banks.jpeg P&P Blog - 4 Enchanting Coastal Parks on North Carolina’s Outer Banks - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.parksandpoints.com/parksandpointsblog/race-to-64 monthly 0.5 2021-07-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef4be1b654f9bd5e292f3f/1627659826641-QWD0074ACCVPRL5MOOL3/64-2%281%29.png P&P Blog - The Race to National Park 64 - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.parksandpoints.com/parksandpointsblog/parks-points-poetry-2021 monthly 0.5 2021-03-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef4be1b654f9bd5e292f3f/1616104289282-P6AOM6Z8IZYOAL9MSTLL/Parks%26Points%26Poetry P&P Blog - Parks & Points & Poetry 2021 https://www.parksandpoints.com/parksandpointsblog/2021feefreedays monthly 0.5 2020-12-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef4be1b654f9bd5e292f3f/1607200726867-57A529PF2NCTSJZQR30B/2021+Fee+Free+Days+-+1.jpeg P&P Blog - 2021 Fee Free Days in the National Parks https://www.parksandpoints.com/parksandpointsblog/the-best-dinosaur-and-fossil-national-parks-and-monuments monthly 0.5 2020-10-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef4be1b654f9bd5e292f3f/1602028184155-YN8IT2EIJMP4QJY4A2N9/Agate+Fossil+Beds+National+Monument%2C+Harrison%2C+Nebraska.jpg P&P Blog - The Best Dinosaur and Fossil National Parks and Monuments https://www.parksandpoints.com/parksandpointsblog/12-scenic-swimming-holes-in-national-parks-and-national-forests monthly 0.5 2020-06-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef4be1b654f9bd5e292f3f/1593038025948-JHN1XSWG8A2R9V5T0DLH/Within+national+parks%2C+monuments%2C+and+forests%2C+there+are+plenty+of+natural+swimming+holes+offering+striking+and+idyllic+scenery+and+an+opportunity+for+off-the-trail+fun.+Cool+down+in+the+summer+heat+or+soak+your+tired+muscles+at+these+twelve+gorgeous+swimming+holes%2C+some+of+which+are+part+of+the+National+Park+Service%2C+and+some+part+of+the+U.S.+Forest+Service.

Some can be a bit hefty; Grand Canyon and Yosemite run $35 per car. The best deal going is the America the Beautiful Pass, as for $80 you purchase one year of unlimited entry into national parks and national wildlife refuges as well as standard amenity fees (day use fees) at national forests and grasslands, as well as lands managed by the Bureau of Land Management, Bureau of Reclamation and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef4be1b654f9bd5e292f3f/1582207432432-IYQ1Y3FSEKGSVNUGAZR7/image-asset.jpeg Tips and Tricks - The Best Apps for Exploring National Parks Use these apps to explore the national parks, forests, and other public lands! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef4be1b654f9bd5e292f3f/1535246586821-JS5ZN6CCQYQO8N2NH375/state+parks+cover.jpg Tips and Tricks - Our Recommendations for State Parks to Explore We’d like to offer up some amazing state parks that we feel are worth a stop!

All the major airlines (and a few hotel chains, like Choice and Hilton) have websites which link you to many stores where you likely already shop, including major department, book, clothing, and home and design stores. By first visiting a shopping portal, then clicking through to the store's website from there, you earn airline miles per dollar spent. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef4be1b654f9bd5e292f3f/1535245842631-MJ2MNVK81RLZR2P6LFS9/static1.squarespace.com.png Tips and Tricks - Why You Should Consider British Airways Avios for Parks Travel The British Airways frequent flyer rewards program Executive Club’s currency of points, called Avios, offers considerable route and redemption options for traveling to airports that are near national parks; these routes are often at a premium when paying cash, so we like this option for both its versatility and cost effectiveness. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef4be1b654f9bd5e292f3f/1535241115430-F3EBQ8FRYD3HGGT9S6RA/Sun.jpg Tips and Tricks - Vacation Value Time: VVT We think of time as more of a commodity, and describe this as “Vacation Value Time,” (or VVT, for short). VVT is the point at which you’d spend additional money to get more daytime vacation time, whether that means paying for a higher priced plane ticket to spend an extra afternoon in Glacier National Park, or splurging on a hotel room closer to a destination in peak season to cut down on driving time to and from the destination. In brief, how much do you value your vacation time and how much extra are you willing to spend to have more of it? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef4be1b654f9bd5e292f3f/1535245504633-WJIFPBGYEO1K2CHUGMG2/dog.jpg Tips and Tricks - Camping with a Dog: The Best Tips for Fun and Safety Shared public lands, or what you might commonly refer to as national parks, forests, and conservation areas, provide the perfect opportunity to enjoy the beauty of nature with your pooch. If you’re bringing your pet along, however, there are several things to prepare for, including safe bedding and having a plan in place for injuries -- not to mention finding a park that is four-paw friendly. Below you’ll find lots of great tips and additional resources to peruse, to ensure your trip is safe as well as fun. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef4be1b654f9bd5e292f3f/1535245138671-7JDEG4Y6K654MYX3WWXX/IMG_4150.JPG Tips and Tricks - Save on Peak Fares by with Delta Companion Certificates These certificates can be of great value, as many of the more popular parks also tend to be near smaller airports that often command considerably high fares — Glacier, Yellowstone, Grand Teton, Voyagers, and Redwood are all several hours driving from major airports, in some cases as much as five hours away from major hub airports while smaller airports with often pricey fares are less than an hour away. These certificates are awarded upon the yearly renewal of the credit card, so you will have to pay the annual fee; however, you’ll more than cover those costs with an effective use of the certificates. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef4be1b654f9bd5e292f3f/1535246345862-5QPE4XULS5ABDAJ3SM1I/8626ef17-8163-4b4e-a742-d7439506f6d6Original%281%29%281%29.jpg Tips and Tricks - Discovering Night Sky Programs at U.S. National Parks The International Dark-Sky Association was created in 1988 to help minimize light pollution and to protect the night skies. There are 103 Dark-Sky sites worldwide, including Great Sand Dunes National Park in Colorado, Staunton River State Park in Virginia, Grand Canyon National Park in Arizona, and Enchanted Rock State Natural Area in Texas. The two entities often work alongside each other to preserve what natural night sky still exists. For example, Bob Meadows, a physical scientist and night skies specialist in the NPS Natural Sounds and Night Skies Division took his expertise and equipment to Goblin Valley State Park to help with the park's Dark-Sky designation—at Goblin Valley, one is under one of the darkest skies in the world. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef4be1b654f9bd5e292f3f/1535245575830-K9J05BMQH3E077IY5HAZ/static1.squarespace.com.jpeg Tips and Tricks - Saving Time and Money on Car Rentals We have distilled our top money-saving strategies for saving significantly on car rentals in a reference list for our readers.

Before she had a chance to spend much time on the trails, she fell while getting up from bed, her two-year old son in her arms, and broke her neck. She is an incomplete C5-C6 quadriplegic. At the time of her fall, she did not know that she had degenerative retina disease, which contributed to her disorientation. She credits both swimming and spiritual practice for the significant mobility she has since regained. She uses a power chair primarily, and occasionally a manual chair, and spends much time outdoors with her family. She serves on the Governor’s Committee for Disability Issues in Washington State and is the parent representative on the Board of Trustees for the Washington State School for the Blind. You can read more about her travels, her recommendations for wheelchair travelers, and her speaking engagements at www.lillylongshore.com.

My trip was impromptu and also something I’d looked forward to for a long time.

There are rolling hills, wooded ridges, oaks, birches, pines, prairie fields, meadows, and ponds. This peak was originally dubbed Government Hill, and was the site of Lapham’s weather tower. There are 21 miles of trails providing a range for all levels of hikers. The Ice Age Trail, a 1000 mile long-distance trail that follows the edge of the receding glacier across the state, cuts through this park. There are over 15 miles of groomed cross-country ski trails, several of which are lit at night. There are picnic areas with shelter, a butterfly garden, a nature center in a beautiful eco-friendly building, an outdoor theater, and a personal favorite, a 45-foot observation tower with distant views of downtown Milwaukee and all of Waukesha county.

Valleys and hollows filled by reliable subtropical rain formed pristine lakes, and seeds followed in the wind, settling in the thin, mineral-rich soils to rise as now-isolated species.

The game was played during the Centennial week celebrations this summer and featured teams playing vintage baseball in the manner it would have been played when the fort was active. The Topeka Westerns took on the Wichita Bull Stockings using 1860s rules, uniforms, and equipment.

Wind Cave lies at the southern end of the Black Hills, just where the ponderosa pines, which give the hills their name, begin to give way to the prairie to the south. We decided to hike through the other half of the park, above ground, feeling there is no substitute for the sensory cornucopia of the back country. We took a 4.5-mile loop out to Lookout Point and were careful not to startle any bison along the way. The trail was full of bison tracks, wallow pits and droppings.” Essays, Grant Sinclair https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef4be1b654f9bd5e292f3f/1535312514067-86XA3CYGKFNB30OKWZN7/Why+Badlands+is+My+National+Park.jpg Plains - Why Badlands is My National Park “Three years ago, my father and I set out on a grand road trip across the country; I was moving to a new home outside of Winter Park, Colorado. For years, we had chatted about a father and son road trip out west. I was thrilled and grateful that my best friend and adventure buddy would be joining me as I started this new chapter in my life.

On all sides, all around me: sky. Nothing but sky, only sky. The vast, immense blue of sky. The walk has taken me through some of those trees, which are now far behind. I have crossed the creeks, some tiny, some not, on rocks or logs that I could find. I prefer the rocks; there is less distance to fall. To get to this rolling prairie in eastern Kansas I have to walk some distance. The land is familiar, my family has been here five generations. Spotlights, Duane L.

The region is both agriculturally robust and scenic, home to a wealth of state parks that protect ancient old growth redwoods, and municipal parks with steep, rocky chaparral and riparian corridors. San Jose is an hour from Pinnacles National Park and Monterey, and 45 minutes from the Santa Cruz Mountains. The Don Edwards San Francisco Bay Wildlife Refuge, where millions of migrating birds pass through annually along the Pacific Flyway, is one half hour north. East San Jose overlooks the foothills of the Diablo Range and is home to the first municipal park in the state of California, Alum Rock Park.

In 2015, the park logged 324,816 recreation visits, compared with more than four million visits each to parks like Yellowstone, Rocky Mountain, and Yosemite National Parks. Like the Galapagos Islands, the seclusion and protection in the Channel Islands allows for species that exist in no other part of the world to thrive and become interdependent. Magnificent kelp forests shelter more than 1,000 species of animals and plants. Rocky reefs are prolific for eelgrass beds, and shelter small invertebrates, fish, and sharks. The park provides nesting and breeding grounds for 99% of California’s shorebirds and seabirds, and half of the world's population of ashy storm petrels and western gulls.

It climbs from 1,800 feet of elevation to nearly 3,000 feet, and it’s decidedly front-country, with a main trail that resembles a broad logging road snaking up the hillside, and scads of people ignoring trail etiquette all along its five-mile stretch. It opened the year I decamped for the east coast. When I returned for the holidays after just a few months away, I was surprised to see that my parents had become “outdoor people,” after a fashion; they walked the steep incline and the five-mile loop with their friends.

July [1981] Mount Rainier. First viewed through the cross-hatch of my mother’s camera lens. During a visit to Seattle we’d driven 54 miles southeast to the national park. My parents posed in the visitor’s center parking lot; I took my first 35-millimeter shot. How little I knew. That at age 24 I’d move to Seattle with Matt, my future husband, and make a friend named Beth. That 14 years later Beth would die and her family would scatter her ashes a mile above the spot where I clicked my mother’s shutter. Back then, I didn’t understand the role Rainer plays in Seattleites’ lives. The backdrop to our city, it dangles from an invisible chain, a locket containing shards of memories, hopes, failures. Many days, clouds obscure our view of “The Mountain.” In its visible moments, our gazes linger. I watch from my deck as the setting sun pinkens the glaciers, the summit’s tip transforms into a watercolor, then fades until it’s indistinguishable from the night sky. 2016 Fall Essay Contest, 3rd Place Essays, Janet Buttenweiser https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef4be1b654f9bd5e292f3f/1535324383744-Q30GGPBCBC3CDL4T778X/Preservation+and+Inspiration+at+Pinnacles.jpg Far West - Preservation and Inspiration at Pinnacles Our expectations for Pinnacles National Park were not high. While my husband and I always talked about stopping to explore whenever we trekked down US 101, it always seemed like a little too much bother for the potential reward. Pinnacles is known for its rocks, birds and heat — the latter frequently overwhelming the attractions of the former. While spotting one of Pinnacles' twenty or so California condors is a crapshoot — the birds are just as likely to be out of the park as in it — the heat is pretty much a guarantee nine months of the year.

The conveyance that had dropped me off in this other-worldly location was a metal-seated green and yellow shuttle bus packed with sun-visored tourists. Now the whole kit and kaboodle was rumbling away down a ribbon of road that curved out of sight into terrain so truly wild that I felt, standing in the midst of it, both exhilarated and very small. The vastness of this wilderness, particularly its autonomy, seemed to me perhaps comprehensible only by the golden eagle that soared on currents far above my head. Into the distance stretched an infinity of tundra peppered with scrawny-limbed trees, the thread of a meandering river at its heart.

Hikers are reminded to keep at least a football-field’s length away, since bears can run two to three times faster than humans, and can climb trees. ‘Be Bear Aware!’ is scrawled cheerfully across the bottom." 2016 Fall Essay Contest, 2nd Place Essays, Heidi Czerwiec https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef4be1b654f9bd5e292f3f/1535330751373-Z1PXOGBZB91MW8JOL1OU/Hike+With+Us+Through+Utah%27s+5+National+Parks.jpeg Rocky Mountains - Hike With Us Through Utah's 5 National Parks We covered a lot of ground in all five of Utah's national parks and recorded some of the pathways and vistas that enlivened us during our visit; these virtual hikes provide some immediate context for specific trails you might be considering.

I was fortunate to visit the Badlands, Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks for two weeks in July and August. I converted many of my images to black and white — I love this look for a couple reasons. First, it lets me highlight contrasts, shapes and lighting within the frame. Second, black and white images have a timeless look to them; they could have been captured yesterday, or in the early part of the twentieth century – so they age well.” Photo Essays, Jim Jones https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef4be1b654f9bd5e292f3f/1535316598592-3ZDXKPMQ937OPK37PA01/Timeless+Land.jpg Rocky Mountains - Timeless Land “The park was unlike anything I had ever seen before. My husband, daughter, and I were driving along Highway 26 West across central Idaho on our way to Twin Falls. We noticed a sign for Craters of the Moon National Monument and Preserve. We’d never heard of it. Well, it was on our way, we had time, and we enjoyed family adventures—so why not stop? As soon as we climbed out of our car, I was struck by a blast of scorching, dry air. At any moment I felt like flames were going to explode from my nostrils.

If you’ve seen Moran’s work, you know that his paintings are as grand as the actual landscape — although not in precisely the same way. Moran’s brush reveals a wonderful eye for details, and a romantic’s disdain for fact. “My general scope is not realistic,” he declared. “All my tendencies are toward idealization.” This statement seems an apt description of my own attitude toward Yellowstone. I love everything I see there, but take occasional pains not to see every thing’ Essays, Peter W.

Yellowstone, designated by Congress in 1872, was the first official national park, not only in the U.S., but in the world. Its existence, along with Yosemite, Kings Canyon, and Sequoia National Parks, influenced the 1916 formation of the National Parks Service. Her impressions offer a brief orientation to the park, especially if you just have a short time to visit.

In the museum at the Harry F. Byrd Visitors Center, at milepost 51 of Shenandoah’s 105 mile Skyline Drive, a preserved “See the USA in a Chevrolet!” advertisement reminds visitors that the park was designed to comfortably bridge the gap between the wilderness and the suburbs. The park, which spans the length of Skyline Drive, is broken up into north, central and south sections. The north end is 75 miles south of Washington, D.C., and day-hikers and casual leaf-peepers populate the overlooks. Further south, expect to see more Appalachian Trail through-hikers and distance cyclists; given the intermittent tourist traffic, the scenic overlooks in the south have a more isolate quality.

To care, the elder said, you need to settle in a place and let it settle in you. Once this happens, you are bound by breath to honor and care for that place."

Some can be a bit hefty; Grand Canyon and Yosemite run $35 per car. The best deal going is the America the Beautiful Pass, as for $80 you purchase one year of unlimited entry into national parks and national wildlife refuges as well as standard amenity fees (day use fees) at national forests and grasslands, as well as lands managed by the Bureau of Land Management, Bureau of Reclamation and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

There are 103 Dark-Sky sites worldwide, including Great Sand Dunes National Park in Colorado, Staunton River State Park in Virginia, Grand Canyon National Park in Arizona, and Enchanted Rock State Natural Area in Texas. The two entities often work alongside each other to preserve what natural night sky still exists. For example, Bob Meadows, a physical scientist and night skies specialist in the NPS Natural Sounds and Night Skies Division took his expertise and equipment to Goblin Valley State Park to help with the park's Dark-Sky designation—at Goblin Valley, one is under one of the darkest skies in the world.

In 2015, the park logged 324,816 recreation visits, compared with more than four million visits each to parks like Yellowstone, Rocky Mountain, and Yosemite National Parks. Like the Galapagos Islands, the seclusion and protection in the Channel Islands allows for species that exist in no other part of the world to thrive and become interdependent. Magnificent kelp forests shelter more than 1,000 species of animals and plants. Rocky reefs are prolific for eelgrass beds, and shelter small invertebrates, fish, and sharks. The park provides nesting and breeding grounds for 99% of California’s shorebirds and seabirds, and half of the world's population of ashy storm petrels and western gulls.
