A10) I have not been able to visit, but it absolutely puts parks on the map for me to want to visit! It is also nice to learn about these places before visiting, I wish we could have them on Blue Sky :( #ParkChat

A7) Rangers have such a wealth of information that cannot be put into books/other literature, so, a lot! I already really enjoy the videos at visitors centers for good information #ParkChat

A6) I think the uniqueness of both make them both extraordinary! I do like the landscape ones themselves. I don’t think I have been to enough of each to have any major preference though. #ParkChat

A4) RMNP for sure. The mountains, the alpine lakes, it is very thought provoking! #ParkChat

A5) Maybe more detail? Though I am always thoroughly impressed with the level of detail of older memorials #ParkChat

A3) Reading stories, seeing names, or hearing rangers talk about events probably the most. #ParkChat

A2) If there is a special event, or a new exhibit! Or if it is on the way for another park visit! #ParkChat

A11) Better funding and more opportunities! Less AI too of course! #ParkChat

A10) Love that! I had no idea, but a great way to showcase local artists! I can’t think of any spots where I am aware of something like this, but, I think it’d be great to do at more parks! #ParkChat

A9) “A year in the National parks” by Johnathan Irish is one of my faves! Great photos! #ParkChat

A8) I am not sure how, but, more highlighting of the art? More advertising of events? #ParkChat

A6) Tough question! I think I have only seen paintings, photos, and maybe song? #ParkChat

A5) I love asking rangers their personal favorite hike- they usually know the more off the beaten path spots! #ParkChat

A4) What is your favorite spot in the park! #ParkChat

Great call! They have one coming up called “viewing a landscape through touch and sound”! Sounds fun! #ParkChat

A2) Great question! Does anyone know if RMNP does this? I know many parks have the artist in the park #ParkChat

Wow! Thats cool! Is there an official agreement in place, or could they cancel the lease? #ParkChat

Ahhhh! I should have known. I was thinking National Scenic Trails! I had to look; Ala Kahakai NHT! It looks beautiful! #ParkChat

A6) Totally spitballing, but, was it established when it became a US Territory? #ParkChat

EJ @ejtemme.bsky.social · 13/08/2026
A5) I am totally stumped. I thought maybe there was a national seashore or something, but nothing comes to mind! #ParkChat

EJ @ejtemme.bsky.social · 13/08/2026
A4) A wonderful explanation- I had no idea that was a thing parks would have! Any idea if @blackhillsparks.bsky.social is also a cooperating association? #ParkChat

A3) Judging from other answers, flying foxes? Those are my favorites! #ParkChat

This is amazing- they are so cute! #ParkChat

Same to you two!! We had so much fun meeting and hiking with everyone! #ParkChat

A1) Hawaii in the North, American Samoa in the South? I guess I had never looked on a map to see how far South American Samoa is! Looks to be closer to NZ than Hawaii! #ParkChat

A10) Probably Voyageurs- we drove! It is only one state over, but it was like 8 hours to get up there! #ParkChat

A9) How can you not say the prairie dogs?!? So cute! #ParkChat

A8) Being able to attend the first ever star party in Voyageurs was really neat! We didn’t even plan for it! #ParkChat

A7) I think Badlands was the first I visited, but I do not remember it well. The first park I visited as an adult was RMNP! The most recent was 7 days ago, also RMNP! Pic from the first trip and the most recent trip: cameras have come a long way! #ParkChat

EJ @ejtemme.bsky.social · 23/07/2026
A6) Oh boy. Another really tough Q! I probably have the most photos from RMNP and I’ve been the most times! I think 10 times now! #ParkChat

EJ @ejtemme.bsky.social · 23/07/2026
A5) I think Wind Cave is quite overlooked. Everyone looks to go to Badlands, Mt Rushmore etc but less people head to Wind Cave! People even overlook the above ground part of the park when they are there! It’s beautiful! #ParkChat

A4) That people think it’s always hot! It can get really cold too! #ParkChat

EJ @ejtemme.bsky.social · 23/07/2026
A3) Oh boy. Could be a controversial question! I’d say either Arches or RMNP. Devils Garden loop in Arches is a must for everyone! #ParkChat

A2) To steer away from my Minuteman Missile story for the 10th time, this year we dipped into Estes Park and we went to this amazing cantina (Sole Rooftop)! Great drinks and amazing Ahi Tuna tacos… #ParkChat
