Exploring Outside the 303
A person wearing a colorful backpack is carefully walking along a narrow trail surrounded by towering red rock formations and sparse vegetation. The trail is made of metal railings, providing support and safety for hikers navigating the precarious terrain. The rocky cliffs rise majestically on either side of the trail, creating a striking contrast with the bright blue sky and scattered clouds. The scene exudes a sense of adventure and natural beauty, inviting viewers to explore the rugged and awe-inspiring landscapes of a national park or remote wilderness area.

National Park Reservation System for Popular Parks

Plan to visit National Parks this summer? 🏞️⁠ ⁠ Many National Parks are set to break attendance records again this summer and in preparation for this a reservation system will be put into place for many of the most popular locations. ⁠ ⁠ Below are the Parks requiring reservations:⁠ Acadia NP (Maine)⁠ Haleakala NP (Hawaii)⁠ Rocky Mountain NP (Colorado)⁠ Glacier NP (Montana)⁠ Yosemite NP (California)⁠ Zion NP (Utah)⁠ ⁠ Most of the reservations can be made 60 days in advance, with a few slots available to be reserved a week in advance to a few days before. Check the specific park website for details (recreation.gov) as there are unique things for each park.⁠ ⁠ It will be interesting to see how this plays out over the summer. As a planner by nature I like the idea of a reservation system for crowd control but struggle as we like the freedom to visit while in the area based on how we feel and the weather. ⁠ ⁠ This is your sign to get planning (if you haven't already) and make those reservations. Happy Exploring!⁠ ⁠ ❓What National Parks do you plan to visit this summer❓⁠ ⁠ @exploringoutsidethe303⁠ @exploringoutsidethe303⁠ @exploringoutsidethe303⁠ ⁠
