I have spent most of my life in one National Park in Washington -- Mt. Rainier. I have visited both Olympic and North Cascades National Parks, also in Washington. However, my husband and I have traveled to the Southwest recently and have hiked in several Parks in Utah, Nevada,and Arizona. We plan to visit many more national parks in the western US; and hopefully some on the east coast. The creative beauty, the varied land forms, the mountain tops and the sunrises/sunsets become etched in our minds and thoughts forever.
