discoveries
U.S. National Park:

T he words “For the Benefit and Enjoyment of the People” stretch across the north-
ern entrance of our nation’s first national park, Yellowstone.
According to the Department of Interior, the goal of the National Park Service is,
and has always been, to keep our wild places protected and unimpaired for future
generations. To that end, more than 400 areas and 84 million acres spanning all 50
states and several unincorporated territories of the United States, protect America’s
greatest natural treasures. With 61 of those wilderness areas toting National Park
designation, it can be tricky trying to pick which park to visit.
So, to help you determine which parks should be higher on your bucket list, we
ranked each park based on their overall accessibility, facilities and accommodations,
trails and attractions, crowds, and, of course, overall ‘wow’ factor, which we meas-
ured by photo ops and stunning scenery.
Keep in mind, it’s almost impossible to say that one is better than the next — there’s
truly something special about each one of our national parks.

Canyonlands National Park, UTAH

Arches' nearby neighbor, Canyonlands, is broken up into four “districts” by the
massive canyons of the Green and Colorado Rivers, but a lack of development
really only provides a couple of roads in and out of the park boundaries
The Island of the Sky area is closest to the town of Moab, so it’s usually the
first stop for visitors and a great place to get acclimated to the area. Along the
main road, there are a handful of easy-to-moderate scenic trails to otherworldly
needle formations and several scenic overlooks. At early hours, dozens of pho-
tographers wait patiently for sunlight to peek through the Mesa Arch, one of the
park’s most iconic landmarks.
The Needles region of the park, which is quite the trek from Island of the Sky,
is where avid adventurers seek out over 100 backcountry trails. Trails to incredible
slot canyons, stunning red-rock formations, and ancient petroglyphs draw back-
country visitors to this area every year.
Where Canyonlands starts to lose some brownie points, is in amenities and ac-
commodations. There is no lodging or dining in the park and only two camp-
grounds with a total of 31 campsites available. Although Canyonlands has a lot
of love for backcountry campers, the average sightseer might have to travel the
30+ minutes to Moab to find a place to stay. Despite lack of lodging, Canyonlands
gets over 700,000 visitors each year. Crowding is more evident in colder months,
like April and May, and along easily accessible trails and at popular scenic over-
looks, like Grand View Point.
Special Places in the World

Where is the lowest point in the world?
The Challenger Deep Trench It is the lowest known natural point in

the world at 35,797 ft. below sea level at the bottom of the Mariana
Trench. Only three people have ever made it to the bottom in a sub-
mersible, one of which was filmmaker James Cameron.
