#119: Mailbag!

In our Mailbag! episodes, we answer questions from listeners about the national parks, ranger-led tours, road trips, hiking, camping, backpacking, gear, relationships, and pretty much whatever anyone wants to ask us. In this episode, we cover these topics:

·     Which national parks were more than we expected when we visited them,

·     How to fit more passport stamps in your passport book when the pages fill up,

·     What activities to do and sites to visit in a camper van on the way from Dead Horse Point State Park to the South Rim of the Grand Canyon,

·     Tips for snagging an NPS lodge cancellation when they’re all booked up,

·     What are the chances the Quinault Lodge in Olympic NP, whose rooms are not airconditioned, will be too warm at night for sleeping in June,

·     Whether Mount Rainier NP will impose a timed-entry reservation system and if it will go into effect in 2023, 

·     Do we think it’s still worth visiting Mesa Verde if you can’t get tickets for the ranger-led tours,

·     What are our biggest regrets when we look back at our journey to all the national parks,

·     And more!
