replying to @publiclandlvr @publiclandlvr @ShastaStatePark @CAStateParks A5 Silver Falls State Park is about an hour's drive from my house. It gets crazy busy, but there's a reason why. It's a beautiful park with miles of hiking trails. #parkchat

replying to @theRangerLife @theRangerLife @GallatinNF Totally! There are so many great folks around here who have excellent recommendations. I also like a good @gazetteers_com map book! I have found so many amazing places just by pouring over pages. #ParkChat

replying to @publiclandlvr @publiclandlvr @GallatinNF A6) #Parkchat To find lesser known destinations, I look for big green patches on the map, once I find a place that's close by where I'd like to go, I look up the area online and with a satellite view. Or, I just ask around what's good for hiking/ exploring locally.

A6. We're so lucky here in Washington. We've got so many resources: @WTA_hikers, @MountaineersOrg, Craig Romano, local and regional groups. Everyone's got a secret place to share. #ParkChat

Q7: News of volunteer efforts to help clean our #publiclands during the lapse in appropriations has garnered national attention. Have you participated in any such individual or organized event? Do you have plans to do so? #ParkChat

replying to @publiclandlvr @publiclandlvr @ShastaStatePark @CAStateParks A5. Last week I took the kids to Long Branch Plantation in the Shenandoah Valley National Heritage Area. It was amazing to walk among the horse pastures! #ParkChat

replying to @publiclandlvr @publiclandlvr @GallatinNF #parkchat A6 (your photo is one of our faves!) We have been looking at @NationalForests and planning some winter/spring fun there. @BlackHillsNF is right out our back door and we never seem to utilize it! Always less crowds and interest by the layman for #nationalforests!

replying to @publiclandlvr @publiclandlvr @GallatinNF A6. Well, is there a ballpark or brewery or something I want to check out? I'll look for park site nearby. Most recently, the Lyonsmith Brewery in western NY caught my attention. Watkins Glen State Park had been on the bucket list too, so there you go! #parkchat

Q5: Now is a great time to visit a state or county park. What’s one you’d recommend that’s a day trip from where you live? #ParkChat
A5: With so many incredible state & county parks throughout the U.S., we'd love to hear suggestions for good Nat Parks alternatives! #WeAreParks
