Canyonlands National Park is the second easily accessible national park from Moab, UT. The first is Arches National Park and it’s the park more people seem to be familiar with.

As a response to overcrowding at Rocky Mountain National Park, a timed entry system was introduced in 2022. Rocky Mountain National Park is not the only national park using this system.

The sand dunes at Great Sand Dunes National Park are massive. Until you’re standing there in person, it can be hard to really grasp the scale. As you drive up to the park and see the dunes in the distance, they look huge. However, it’s not until you’re standing out there that you can really …
“My God… That’s spectacular.” On our final tour at Mammoth Cave National Park, the man directly in front of us said this exact line every single time we turned a corner. No, I’m not exaggerating.
