Greetings from Yellowstone National Park
It is hard to pick any individual national park as my sister and I traveled and loved many of our country's National parks over the years. I have picked Yellowstone because it is so beautiful and powerful and because my sister died a couple of years ago. I spread her…

Greetings from Acadia National Park
Picking one park that has impacted my life that I want to protect feels like trying to decide which chocolate bar I want at the gas station. They’re all great. I want them all. I chose Acadia because as a kid my father dragged me around to hundreds of national…

Greetings from Crater Lake National Park
I visited Crater Lake for the first time on my honeymoon. Having traveled 2500 miles, I hoped the cost would be worth it. Nothing prepared me for its magnificence. The park was busy on that August day back in 2003. I didn't understand the hushed silence of the crowd standing…

Greetings from Lake Mead National Recreation Area
This is not just for lake mead but also red rock canyon and mount charleston. These are my places of serenity especially growing up fishing hiking and camping in all of them. Then I went to the marine corps in the 2000s and went to Iraq. When I came back…

Greetings from North Cascades National Park

Greetings from Great Smoky Mountains National Park
The Smokies had some of the most breathtaking views I've seen so far! You can feel the energy radiating from the trees, and the giant mountains all around, it's undeniable that they hold so many secrets and so much power of the land within their history! The Smokies deserve respect…

Greetings from Big Bend National Park
My parents introduced me to travel at a young age. Finances didn’t always allow our family of six to fly or stay in hotels, but camping provided us access to affordable adventure. Twice we went on “Wild West” campaign trips where we would drive two days westward from Ohio and…

Greetings from Yosemite National Park
Where do I start? National Parks have been a part of my life since I was a small child. My parents took me on road trips after visiting local parks, to help me see our country and its amazing variety. We took our child on similar road trips to see…

Greetings from Grand Canyon National Park
I began working as a tour guide at National Parks on the west coast of the US in the summer of 2023. This photo is from one of the first times I had the privilege of joining my passengers on a helicopter ride (which could often be subject to cancellations…
