Yellowstone is good for the back country fishing otherwise its more of a tourist trap than Disney world. I'm not gonna be miserable in some shithole waiting in line surrounded by Floridians. Disgusting I just can't do it.Grand canyon or Bryce. Bryce would be my favorite if it wasn't for just how fucking ridiculous it is the first time you see the grand canyon. But once u see it a bunch times ur like ok thats the grand canyon who gives a shit.

Oh I'm glad ppl mentioned the tourist situation at Yellowstone. Too many ppl talk it up like its some kinda magic place you idiots are ruining it. You can't even see the stars at night cuz they've basically built a city for all you people unbelievable.

False. I camped there and the stars were incredible. It was an ocean of them. And you just mentioned the Grand Canyon as if the Grand Canyon doesn't also get droves of tourists like Yellowstone.

Anyways yes lots of tourists is a negative but one of the most spectacular places on the planet is going to have tourists, obviously, there's unfortunately no other way around that. Keeping a place like that a secret is not possible

I guess that means if you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem. Henceforth please visit Chuck Norris and tell him that 'you're an idiot and you're ruining it'.
I'm sure his response will be both swift and sage.

The place I'm looking at now is a town called whitefish in Montana. A train ticket from Seattle is 68$. The town nearby is called Kalispell. It right outside glacier national Park and Yellowstone in 300 miles south. I could rent a car in Kalispell. Seems like an adventure.

The parks in utah are some of the most amazing, otherworldly places I've ever seen. Spent 12 days camping and hiking in Bryce Canyon, Arches, Zion and Capital Reef. Being out there in the desert among all the crazy rock formations was like walking around an alien planet.
My favorite is the Adirondack mountains in upstate NY. 6.1 million acres (larger than Yellowstone, Yosemite, Grand Canyon, Great Smoky, and Everglades National Parks combined), 46 mountain peaks over 4,000ft, over 10,000 lakes, 30,000 miles of rivers and streams, 200,000 acres of old-growth forests. It contains some of the most wild wilderness left on the east coast.

By the way I just looked up most visited parks in the US and the Grand Canyon is ahead of Yellowstone and receives roughly 2 million more tourists annually than Yellowstone

So this guy says he's been there "a bunch of times" to a park that gets significantly more traffic than even Yellowstone. Chief you're an idiot and you ruined the Grand Canyon. I hope you can sleep at night knowing that you ruined that canyon forever and now we can't see the stars there anymore

Yes!
When i lived in Montana as a kid, i had the Honor of visiting Glacier National Park. It was one of the most incredible experiences i ever had. I hardly remember all the details it but i do remember it was breath-takingly beautiful

Its wanderlust or perhaps you have a strong desire to feel wonder?

Do you guys understand how gigantic the grand canyon is? Also like I said Yellowstone is also huge and has a sick backcountry were u can camp and see some stars sure. But u could also do that like anywhere in the rockies. Its lit a natural theme park at this point. Stop telling people its nice to go there.

I have booked a couple days to Schiermonnikoog in a few weeks
Its a small island and apparently has a very quiet national park, especially in the off-season.
Planning a 20km hike on acid

Unfortunately here in the Netherlands we dont have the epic natural surroundings you guys in the States have
