replying to @GalsWander @GalsWander A9. Yellowstone! Each section of the park is very unique from one other and you can’t beat the wildlife. No radio or cell reception has it perks too #ParkChat

replying to @GalsWander @GalsWander A9) Yellowstone. The first time I went there I only had one day and I spent 16 hours driving around the park. So many different things to see. Almost every aspect of our wonderful wild world seems to exist within its boundaries. #ParkChat

replying to @t_jh2009 @t_jh2009 @59NationalParks @Wild_Tribute A8) Might be an unpopular opinion, but with the sheer crowd numbers, Great Smoky Mountains NP could truthfully use another transecting route over the mountains. #parkchat

replying to @t_jh2009 @t_jh2009 @59NationalParks @Wild_Tribute A8 I am strongly opposed to the construction of any new roads on existing public lands. However, I would support building new roads on degraded private land after it is acquired, restored, and converted into new parks! #ParkChat

replying to @t_jh2009 @t_jh2009 @59NationalParks @Wild_Tribute I don’t want more roads in the Everglades as we already have two big ones. but I would love a full fledged park lodge. I want that Yellowstone/Glacier/Yosemite vibe in my home park! We’re just as big and pretty! We deserve it! #ParkChat #FindYourPark

Q10) A road trip isn't a road trip without traffic. If it's not road construction in the park it's driving through a large metropolitan area. What's the worst experience you've endured? #ParkChat

A9 I suspect I would say @GlacierNPS or the Canadian Rockies parks if I had ever been there, but since I haven't, I'll go with the consensus 1st choice and say @YellowstoneNPS #parkchat

replying to @hksbks @GalsWander Oh, and there's the time I left and started to head east toward home sadly thinking my trip was over and the scenery would end, etc. only to end up on the Beartooth Highway and have the drive (and views!!) of my life. #ParkChat

replying to @StevenOnTheMove @StevenOnTheMove Sometimes you do. But much of the time, the rangers are just worried about unprepared travelers driving rental cars with crappy tires who aren't used to driving on desert roads. Pro tip is to call and ask for the "ranger's report" on road conditions. It's more detailed. #ParkChat
