Exploring The National Park System By RV: Lava Beds National Monument
What comes to mind when you think about California’s best national parks for RVers? Yosemite? Sequoia? The Redwoods?

With more rigs on the road than campsites to accommodate them, RVers like me are constantly competing for a scant number of RV-friendly campsites. I learned this lesson the hard way when I arrived at Yellowstone without reservations.
