I am 75 years old and have visited every one of these parks in my lifetime. I have returned with my parents, my kids, and grandkids. It makes me very sad that all the parks have become so over crowded that you need reservations just to enter some of them. This video makes a virtual visit possible and is probably the best video ever made. Excellent narration throughout. Thank you very much for what may be my last visit to each of these places. I am forever grateful to the countries leaders who had the forethought to set each of these places aside for protection so they are here for generations to come. A great and proud, truly American thing to do! It is shameful that mankind cannot spend more time enjoying places like this and less time fighting senseless wars. Thank you for a very enjoyable video !

In my opinion the National Parks system is one the greatest attributes of our country. We might disagree on practically everything else but I think most Americans share a strong sense of pride and appreciation for the natural beauty of this country. It’s our responsibility to protect and preserve what was here before us.

My dad took me all over these parks I miss him passed 30 years ago when I was 19. I'll always remember the times we were able to travel, he showed me the beauty of America.

That USNPS guy talking in more philosophy ways was really great!

All I can say is WOW!!

The West is the best. I live down South and there is nothing beautiful down here. I've been out West and believe me its absolutely beautiful out West. Excellent video..

My soul can’t stop watching and listening to this. I must experience this before I die. I’m in the process of converting my SUV into a camper now and about to begin my journey soon.

To anyone watching who has never been to one of these parks, all I can say is make it a priority in you life to visit a least one. You'll never regret it, only regret not going before. For me it was life changing. Like feel like a child going to Disney every time I go to one of these parks.

I have watched many series about the National Parks and Shelton Johnson brings them to life like no one else can. His descriptions transport me there every time.

I don't know who needs to read this but we are all going through tough and difficult times, Don't give up. You are here for a reason. You matter. Just don't give up whatever you're going through. I love you.

So beautiful! Lucky me got to grow up at the base of the Rocky Mountains. Now I'm in Oregon and love living in a natural treed area only 50 miles from the Pacific Ocean. Got to go out there with grandkids the other day and we had a great time. Nature is gorgeous - What a wonderful world.

How wonderful that you made this available while we are all confined to our homes. A fun surprise.

It's cool to see Don Cheadle working for our national forests
-
That is a great Ranger! He gets excited about his job!

One thing America did right was our national parks. Not many places on earth can match them in pure beauty. If not the prettiest on earth. Yeah some places have spots but the American parks are 100's of miles of nothing but beauty.

My dream is to meet Mr. Shelton Johnson one day in one of these national parks.
