Why Custer State Park Should be on your American B Why Custer State Park Should be on your American Bucket List 🇺🇸 By Peter Cordova Jr. (@playful_pj): “To put it simply, my entire family’s jaws dropped the closer and closer we got to Custer State Park. The landscapes were unlike anything we had ever seen before, to the point where my mom was even asking if some of the rock formations were man made! It almost felt like we were traveling through the mountains of Middle Earth (The Lord of the Rings reference). The roads were not the easiest to drive. We actually had to go quite slow because of all the twists and turns but that just gave us more time to admire the landscape. I have been to a fair amount of unique places but I can’t say that I can compare this place to anywhere else. If you are a traveler who likes to climb on rocks and enjoys a nice hike full of fresh air, colorful trees and a rewarding view, then you are going to love this place!” Link in Bio for the full article 🇺🇸 #custerstatepark #southdakota #southdakotagram #southdakotalife #visittheusa #americandream
Discover Samuel H. Boardman State Scenic Corridor Discover Samuel H. Boardman State Scenic Corridor in Oregon 🌿 By Kylie Martin (@wiilldatheart): “Being a photographer, I have a lot of places on my bucket list. Natural Bridges in Samuel H Boardman had been on my list for a while. So when we decided to take this trip spontaneously, I was incredibly excited! Overall, it was an amazing experience. Samuel H Boardman is one of the most rugged and beautiful sections of the Oregon Coast. I wish we could have spent more time here because you could easily spend a day at each location. We started our exploration at Arch Rock as there was no one in the parking lot. We had the viewpoint to ourselves which was epic! Then we drove to Lone Ranch. We spent three hours there walking on the beach and exploring the tide pools. We even spotted seals sunbathing on the rocks! The rocks out there reminded me of an adult jungle gym. There is so much to discover and learn about on the coast. Most of the sea stacks on the Oregon Coast are millions of years old. That is mind boggling to me.” Link in Bio for the full article 🌿 #samuelhboardman #samuelhboardmanstatesceniccorridor #oregon #traveloregon #visitoregon #oregoncoast #oregonexplored #oregonisbeautiful #pnw #pacificnorthwest
Guadalupe Mountains National Park: Experience the Guadalupe Mountains National Park: Experience the Best of West Texas ⛰ By Andrew Fisher (@andrewfisher7): “I first visited Guadalupe Mountains National Park in 2016. It was a quick trip to hike Guadalupe Peak and have two nights of car camping in the Pine Springs Campground. I have been to the park several times since, finding something new to love each time. My latest visit was with my fiance. It was a small part of a much larger West Texas trip but it was our favorite stop. This park offers many experiences. I have hiked, car camped, backpacked and star gazed here. I have seen the sunset and sunrise from the highest point in Texas, a mountainside full of bighorn sheep, the Milky Way cutting the sky in half, the triangular shadow of Guadalupe Peak, javelinas chasing each other in the woods and fall colors – all within the confines of this park!” Link in Bio for the full article 🥾 #guadalupemountains #guadalupemountainsnationalpark #guadalupe #guadalupepeak #texas #westtexas #greatstateoftexas #lonestarstate #hikingculture #adventureisoutthere #welivetoexplore #visittexas #texasliving #visittheusa
Salt Creek Recreation Area: Ultimate Weekend Getaw Salt Creek Recreation Area: Ultimate Weekend Getaway from Seattle 🌿 By Eva Seelye (@evangelea): “I first stumbled upon Salt Creek Recreation Area on AllTrails one day while I was scouting short trails for hikes my mom and I could do together. I love AllTrails’ map feature to explore nearby natural areas and discover trails that I have never heard of! Some AllTrails trip reports showed photos of a waterfall, a hike in a cove and an expansive view of Vancouver Island from a lookout – all within a five mile out-and-back hike. After doing more research, we discovered it was part of Salt Creek, which looked like Washington’s famed Cape Flattery with its rocky island and tide pools (but closer to home). Needless to say, we prepared our packs and hit the road the next day! Salt Creek is on Coast Salish and S’Klallam land. It’s a marine wildlife sanctuary where visitors can enjoy a range of experiences from surfing and diving, to hiking and enjoying views of the Strait of Juan de Fuca and Vancouver Island. Even better, this 196-acre rec area is open all year round.” Link in Bio for the full article 🌿 #saltcreek #saltcreekrecreationarea #washington #seattle #weekendgetaway #roadtrip #seattlelife #pacificnorthwest
Kenai Fjords National Park: Where Mountains and Gl Kenai Fjords National Park: Where Mountains and Glaciers Meet 🏔 By Jen Leigh Brewster (@jens.on.a.mountain): “For those not as experienced in hiking in the backcountry, I would highly recommend Portage Glacier, Exit Glacier and Tonsina Creek Trail in Kenai Fjords National Park. All of these hiking trails are relatively short and don’t require excessive amounts of gear and equipment. Also, they are heavily trafficked – so the chances of encountering wild bears is much lower. Most trails inside national parks in Alaska don’t allow dogs, so just keep that in mind if you plan on traveling with your pooches! In the more advanced categories we hiked Marathon Race Trail, Lost Lake Trail, Caines Head Trail, Crater Lake, Mt. Alice Trail and Alpine Trail. The elevation gains on these hikes were quite intense but the views were stunning. We also kayaked with a company called Liquid Adventures through an active iceberg peninsula up to Bear Glacier, which is Harding Icefield’s largest glacier. On this tour we saw so much wildlife – from bears to sea otters to eagles. We even had a large iceberg break off 25 feet from us! The whole time we were surrounded by green lush mountains yet floated past massive icebergs. It was the most incredible juxtaposition. Kayaking Bear Glacier was my absolute favorite adventure in Kenai Fjords.” Link in Bio for the full article 🏔 #kenaifjords #kenaifjordsnationalpark #alaska #visittheusa #kayaking
As 2021 rolls into May, one incredibly unique expe As 2021 rolls into May, one incredibly unique experience becomes available in the Sunshine State: bioluminescent kayaking! From the end of May until the beginning of October, the team at Get Up And Go Kayaking (@getupandgokayaking) offer bioluminescent kayaking tours at Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge. This light show is best experienced during the darkest possible nights – when there is a new moon or no moon rise. Quality clear kayaks provided by Get Up And Go Kayaking allow you to see the bioluminescence below. Glowing light emissions are caused by living organisms in the water. The unusual light show is whipped up by a large concentration of single celled bioluminescent organisms that gather in warm waters. They light up like fireflies in the water and leave a swirl of neon blue, creating a magical spectacle. There are only a few places in the world where you can witness the magic of bioluminescence and Merritt Island is one of them 💙 Link in Bio for more info! #bioluminescence #kayaking #bioluminescent #merittisland #merittislandnationalwildliferefuge #florida #visitflorida #sunshinestate #sendmetoflorida
