There are nearly 400 units in the National Park System, and not all are loved the same. Which, in your opinion, is the most overlooked or under appreciated unit of all?
Might it be Hubbell Trading Post National Historic Site in Arizona? Or Fort Union Trading Post National Historic Site in North Dakota? Or perhaps it is Kaloko-Honokōhau National Historical Park in Hawaii, or maybe Thaddeus Kosciuszko National Memorial in Philadelphia.
Let us know and we'll try to share some love with the most undervalued unit.

I've also enjoyed some of the smaller or more obscure park sites like Salem Maritime, the Seattle branch of the Klondike Goldrush and Saugus Iron Works. There are many more and all deserve their day.
There is also remote, as opposed to obscure. I haven't been to Gates of the Arctic yet, but have hopes to get there while we're still living in Alaska, and we plan to return to the National Park of American Samoa in a year or so. We were there once when my wife worked on the tsunami recovery for them and the next time will be purely leisure - in particular, we hope to lay on the perfect beach in the Ofu unit.
Isle Royale NP, the least visited of our NP's. Great scenery, fishing, hiking, and canoeing with a vibrant moose population.
I have to vote for Teddy Roosevelt NP in North Dakota. Beautiful place. But I'm glad it's a bit forgotten: the solitude is what makes it special. :-)
