Thanks for posting this link. I've been to 23 of the 58 US NPs. I have a personal top 3 that I can't decide between, simply because they are so vastly...
58? I have a list of 63. I went to the NPS website found their list of parks and copy/pasted all that ended in "National Park". Its a life-list goal to visit...
