Last week Adam and I took some time to explore our own great country and visited three National Parks in the South West. We visited Arches National Park, Mesa Verde National Park, and Grand Canyon National Park.

Visiting National Parks is a great way to travel the U.S. and witness the raw beauty that draws thousands of visitors each year. Personally I love hiking and backpacking so the parks are the perfect place to visit, at each park we visited there were a plethora of hiking option from easy to strenuous not to mention many view points that are accessible by car. If you are taking a trip across the continental United States, plan on spending some quality time with nature in the National Parks.
