If you've been to Yellowstone, Yosemite, or the Grand Canyon, just to name three examples, in summer, you know they can be crowded. So, to help minimize overcrowding at parks this summer, tell us which parks you plan to visit so the rest of us can plan accordingly.

We too are Texans and travelling to Glacier NP in July 2010. We're leaving East Texas July 5th for a 3 month trip, pulling an RV. Will also visit Mt. Rushmore, Olympia NP (Wash.), Crater Lake (Oregon), Oregon Coast, Yosemite, Redwoods, Zion, Bryce, Canyonland and any other NP along the way.
You will love it! Wrangell-St. Elias was our favorite.
What a great site for a "business" trip. :)
We too must stay local but there is never a bad day in a NP unit.
We are headed to the Blue Ridge Parkway in April for some great hiking and wildflower viewing. Cannot wait!
The last week in May we are headed off to Yosemite NP by way of the California Zephyr to Sacramento.Planning on visiting Sequoia NP and traveling the PCH down to San Diego.
Grand Teton and Glaicier National Park!!!
I live in CO and am taking my 2 yr old son on a road trip west through Canyonlands and Bryce, then out to Yosemeti and Redwoods, then back to Yellowstone and then home. We visit Rocky Mountain all summer long.
