replying to @tthrash @tthrash @ParksCanada @WildWithinHer My cousin did all the state parks in Wisconsin last year and had a blast. I want to adopt the Virginia State Park quest when we move back this summer. #parkchat

replying to @InnerCompass @InnerCompass @tthrash @ParksCanada It's been really fun. Seems like there's always a state park (or six) on the way to or from somewhere! #parkchat

replying to @publiclandlvr @publiclandlvr @ParksPassport @NatlParkService @Wild_Tribute @rscottjones We’ve thought about seeing all of the fossil based @NatlParkService units. #ParkChat Actually have it mapped out.

replying to @theRangerLife @theRangerLife @59NationalParks @ParksPassport @NatlParkService @Wild_Tribute @rscottjones A lot of states have special programs for visiting all their state parks, such as @SC_State_Parks' Ultimate Outsider. Imagine completing that for all 50 states! #ParkChat

replying to @InnerCompass @InnerCompass @ParksCanada @WildWithinHer 215 NY state parks. Certainly want to get to a few more, but not all. #parkchat

replying to @59NationalParks @59NationalParks @NatlParkService @Wild_Tribute @rscottjones A1) Well it would be only 418 @ParksPassport Cancelation Stamps since Hohokam Pima National Monument is closed to the public & is considered trespassing on Federal Land. Given that I have no idea what I would do since I already traveled around the World last year. #ParkChat

replying to @tthrash @tthrash A2) For me it is both. I like to see my favorites but maybe not spend as much time at them. Exploring new areas would be the focus. #ParkChat

replying to @WildWithinHer @WildWithinHer @tthrash @ParksCanada We drive by so many when traveling in CA and don't have the room in our schedule to visit them. It makes me sad! #parkchat

A2. I “sacrificed” seeing the east sides/sections of Big Bend and Pinnacles in favor of spending more time seeing their west sides. I’ll be working east next time. Then again, there are absolutely hikes I will do each time I go to a certain park. #parkchat

replying to @tthrash @tthrash A2 Sometimes we think x amount of days is enough, only to find out it was not a long enough stay. I would say a combo of the above plus going somewhere in the park we did not see. #ParkChat

replying to @tthrash @tthrash A2. #Parkchat I do enjoy revisiting places but equally enjoy something new, it depends on where I'm at in my life and if I'm feeling like I need an adventure or if I want to be nostalgic. Right now, I'm ready for a new adventure!
theRangerLife
replying to @tthrash @tthrash A2. Usually new hiking trails with a stop or two at previous favorite overlooks #parkchat
wanderlustmark
replying to @tthrash @tthrash A2 A little bit of both for me. I usually return to a favorite spot/hike, but I go off in search of new places, too! #ParkChat

replying to @tthrash @tthrash A2 #parkchat Usually seeing and hiking something new. The first visit always feels so quick and exploratory, just giving us a quick peek at the park.

A2. If traveling with someone who hasn’t been before, always do much of the same highlights, but if returning with no virgins, 100% of the time exploring new #ParkChat

replying to @59NationalParks @59NationalParks @publiclandlvr @ParksPassport @NatlParkService @Wild_Tribute @rscottjones Don't skip Clayton Lake State Park in northeastern New Mexico. Dinosaur prints in situ. Stunning. #ParkChat
InnerCompass
A2) For me, return visits are about going to my happy/escape place to recharge (@ShenandoahNPS) OR to further my exploration of a park. Even in my recharge place I still like to explore new areas and expand my knowledge of the park. #parkchat https://t.co/E1QtMTseth
evanturkart
#parkchat A2) I feel like there are always so many things left undone, that I have to try something new when I go back to a park! But my husband is very new to visiting parks, so I'll want to visit all the old favorites with him, too!

replying to @59NationalParks @59NationalParks @ParksPassport @NatlParkService @Wild_Tribute @rscottjones Revisiting some of my favorites and then adding in state parks. #parkchat
rscottjones
😁 A1 #parkchat Move on to my other quests, like 50 countries before I'm 50! And, of course, return visits to the parks—I'm already about 1/2 done with round 2 of the park units. But really, having a quest has really inspired me to travel. I highly recommend them. #GoQuesting https://t.co/AmpQL7IYVk

A1 I would also like to do a London-to-Singapore drive, once we have #worldpeace #parkchat

replying to @tthrash @tthrash Since we’ve done that it’s a mixture of the old and the new. We’ve found out though, that the old is new again. Every time. #ParkChat

replying to @coasthikergirl
@coasthikergirl Yep, totally get that "exploratory" vibe, as if I'm sure I'm gonna make it back.

replying to @59NationalParks @59NationalParks @ParksPassport @NatlParkService @Wild_Tribute @rscottjones Nice! That would take you to @JDFossilBedsNPS which is surrounded by other fantastic #publiclands. #ParkChat

replying to @tthrash @tthrash A2: It's usually all of the above. I try to visit new areas/trails if I can, but sometimes an old favorite is all I need. #ParkChat

replying to @tthrash @tthrash A2) My annual Mother's Day trip to Yosemite National Park is more about reconnecting & recharge my batteries as much as going for a saunter or two. #ParkChat

replying to @tthrash @tthrash A2: Usually something new. If not someplace new then a new route, direction, etc. #ParkChat

A2. We spend a fair amount of time at @MountRainierNPS, and for me it's about exploring more of the park, particularly less-visited areas. #ParkChat
