replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute @Exotichikes A1) To me that would mean a trail less taken so you'll be away from the crowds. #ParkChat

replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute @Exotichikes A1) Getting beyond the typical trails at your local parks and finding some places with fewer people and more nature. #ParkChat

A1) For us, it's just getting away from the norms of home, exploring what we can, and having fun. All the parks are off the beaten path for us! #ParkChat

A1) Off the beaten path, for me, are places that aren't on the main tourist routes. They can still be popular, or well known, but don't have the reputation of "Must-see" that other locations do. #ParkChat

A1 Uhm. Well. My definition of "going off the beaten path" means finding the beaten path, and then going off it. #ParkChat

replying to @59NationalParks @59NationalParks @DryTortugasFilm @Exotichikes We weren’t particular fans of the drive over New Years either. Not white out but the roads were incredibly icy. It’s a long 90 Miles! #Parkchat

replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute @Exotichikes Even in State Parks, people just hang by the lake, swimming or fishing, or mingle at the campsites. Most trails get thin use. Amazing #ParkChat

Q2) Many claim that our parks are too crowded. How do you avoid the masses and discover off the beaten path destinations while visiting popular Parks? #ParkChat

A1 My definition of off-the-beaten path means going off trail to the top of something….like Static Peak in Grand Teton. #parkchat
