replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute A1 Mt. Rainier is by far the most spectacular mountains in America, and I honestly think it's among the finest in the world. It dominates the Pacific Northwest with its massive glaciers. It has dozens of spectacular waterfalls, and the most magnificent meadows. #parkchat

A6 I get a thrill being on top of peaks and looking down at places. Logan Pass is in the bottom left of this pic in Glacier NP shot from top of Mt. Reynolds. #parkchat

replying to @59NationalParks @59NationalParks @Wild_Tribute #ParkChat I almost didn’t hike #halfdome in #Yosemite due to my fear of heights, but was inspired by the age range of people on the hike. “If they can do it, I can too”. People inspire me to do great things 🙂

A5: While not a mountain, the top of Bryce Canyons reaches 10K feet. The snow and ice formed the unique hoodoo formations that inspire wander and awe. #parkchat

replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute #parkchat A7 gotta go with summiting the Beartooth Pass (by car!) and seeing its namesake. Breathtaking!

replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute A7) The hike to the top of the Cinder Cone in Lassen Volcanic National Park was memorable not because of the elevation but the terrain, walking in the lava rock for each two steps forward you feel like you're going one step back. #ParkChat

A6: The aptly named Angel's Landing in Zion teased out my previous unknown fear of heights. As we climbed, my hiking buddy told the story about a park ranger who plummeted to his death. I told her that was a story for later or never. #parkchat

replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute A5 The Crater Glacier in Mt. St. Helens - it's an actively growing, low elevation glacier inside a volcano! #parkchat

replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute A7) #ParkChat Again, Mauna Kea because the #STARS! I wish I had the Hard Drive hooked up with some of the photos, I will share this one from the primitive campground in @Volcanoes_NPS instead #Stars #MilkyWay #nightphotography

replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute #parkchat A9 Electric Peak near Gardiner, MT, @YellowstoneNPS. Wins its name daily.

replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute A7: Not much into peak bagging but most memorable for me was Mt. Whitney. I may be a minority but it was underwhelming for me. Might be caused of fatigue. 😅 We were ending our weeklong hike & all I wanted was to get off the mountain & get a shower and a burger #parkchat

replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute A9 #parkchat Probably time to drop my Superstition Mountains tweet. Great name given the unique history and mythology of the infamous Lost Dutchman's gold mine. It's also a great desert mountain range.

replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute A9) I wish I knew the names of the various peaks I saw in the Andes while I was in Chile because they were breathtaking. #ParkChat

@59NationalParks A10 #parkchat My money is on the Sierras, because it's both amazing and accessible.
But holy cow, the Brooks Range is fantastic. Here's a shot of our flight through the Brooks last summer.

replying to @59NationalParks @59NationalParks #parkchat A10 well, partial to the Rockies due to proximity, but I hear the Cascades are incredible. And speaking of Rockies, our most recent was in Dec @YellowstoneNPS of course! 😊

replying to @59NationalParks @59NationalParks A10) Best, Appalachians, as they're an easy access for over 1/3 of all Americans, the last was a spur of the Sierra range in Toiyabe National Forest . #ParkChat

replying to @59NationalParks @59NationalParks Rockies. A range with four major national parks and some of the most iconic sites in America. I’ve had the time of my life in those mountains. I can’t wait to go back. My first visits to Rocky and Yellowstone and Teton and Glacier changed my life. #FindYourPark #ParkChat
