In an article that was undoubtedly designed to generate controversy, the travel writers at USA Today have published their list of America’s 10 Most Scenic National Parks.
Beauty, and they say, is in the eye of the beholder, and with 59 national parks to choose from, there were bound to be some omissions, but it’s hard to believe they could leave out such natural wonders as Yellowstone and Bryce Canyon.
One of the parks they did list is in Alaska, one in Hawaii, and one in the US Virgin Islands. We haven’t been to any of those, but we have been to five of the remaining seven.
They are all great, but there are two – Great Sand Dunes and Great Smokey Mountains - that wouldn’t have made my list. They might have made my top twenty, but not until I had listed Glacier, Big Bend, Rocky Mountain NP, Crater Lake, etc.
