Yellowstone National Park, Wildlife, Landscapes, and Photography
Visual Highlights of Yellowstone National Park
If you could visit one national park in the United States, which one would it be?
The US National Park Service (NPS) manages and protects 423 units covering more than 85 million acres in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and US territories. These units are divided into 19 naming designations, such as national monuments (84 units), national parks (63 units), and national historic sites (73 units).
Since childhood, I have been fortunate to visit dozens of NPS sites throughout the lower 48 states. Included are places as diverse as Independence National Historical Park and Gettysburg National Military Park in Pennsylvania, Everglades National Park in Florida, Mount Rainier National Park in Washington, Yosemite National Park in California, and Grand Canyon National Park in Arizona. But knowing what I know now if I could visit only one US National Park Service Unit, it would be Yellowstone National Park.
