Today, we take a look at the United State’s National Parks and the National Park System’s history since the 19th century. We will take a look at how they became established and when particular acts occurred, and parks opened during the 152 years since the first park was designated. Some of my favorite places I’ve ever been to in the US are national parks and they provide a slice of nature for the public that can be harder and harder to find in the world today. So get out, go live life, go enjoy some beautiful, majestic, and down right immaculate scenery; go hike, bike, climb, raft, kayak, or do one of the countless, numerous, endless amount of activities available at America’s National Parks, it may just change your life, you never know!
