Yosemite still ranks as my best park to camp in. I have been as far east as to Niagara Falls but it is just one falls and only under 300 feet high. Yosemite has many falls of over 1500, ft high. If you park there, be sure not to have food inside the car. Bears can smell it and will rip the car doors off. They might even rip into the trunk. Crowds unfortunately may bother others. Shopping is available in the park.
Want a good healthy view?

She will tour you to give you the idea. I have been to Yellowstone too and saw a lot of it. I like the very large lake in Yellowstone and the wildlife there.

I have visited every Nat'l Park west of the Mississippi and many east of the river. Many times to Yosemite---LOL, I lived 70 miles away for 44 years. I can't say that I have a standout favorite, but Yosemite is one of my favorites along with the Redwoods, Grand Canyon, Carlsbad Caverns, Glacier and Yellowstone.
 
I went to Jellystone Park when I was a kid.
Two bears took our picnic basket but Ranger Smith made them give it back

Yosemite is beautiful but very crowded. Kinda defeats the purpose of communing in nature. My favorite Parks are Kings Canyon (Yosemite without the crowds) Zion, Grand Canyon, Yellowstone.

I highly recommend Chiricahua National Monument in Arizona.

White Sands is another often overlooked park. It is not your run-of-the-mill national park but 180 square miles of gypsum dunes is impressive.

I drove to Grand Canyon and have been at Cedar Breaks near Zion and both were very nice. Never been to Kings canyon. Will check it out. Yellowstone is also super.

I was a scout the first time I was in Yosemite and went back over a half dozen times. I have also been to the Redwoods and Grand Canyon and Yellowstone and not at the Caverns or Glacier. I did not camp out at Yellowstone.

I have been to Cedar Breaks as well. Agree, it is very nice.

I've been all over a good bit of Yosemite including many of the spots in the video but I never saw any half-naked wading goddesses there in a string bikini. I must have gone on the wrong day.

Me too. She is on you tube and has come here to Idaho but never told us earlier where she would be. Would love to meet her. She has a PhD in Pharmacy and is from around MA I believe.

If my pharmacist looked that good, it would be a terrible thing. I'd be sick as hell all of the time forever needing scripts filled. :smoke:
