Summary:

Whooshing geysers and erupting volcanoes. Howling wolves and soaring eagles. Rainforests, glaciers, mountains, and more. America's national parks are packed with amazing sights and experiences! Inside this guide, travel from Acadia's cliffs and coves to Zion's enchanting red valleys. Visit Hawai'i, American Samoa, and the U.S. Virgin Islands, too! You'll discover each park's secrets, which animals to spot, what the parks are like after dark, and where to white-water raft, hike, snorkel, and ski.
