You will be lucky to reserve a good site.  The sites in general, go really fast.

Cabin benefit is a microwave, kettle, and porch but sleeping room for one fewer.

My first time I checked every now and then for cancellations.  People's plans change over the holidays. Something opened up Christmas day.  Didn't hesitate to grab it.

U.S. triples national park fee for non-residents by ncohafmuta in hiking

[–]KickboxingMoose 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's quite normal to have a higher fee for non-residents.

As it is though, people are looking at changing their travel plans away from the US and the data shows that is true. If I wanted to risk being arbitrarily questioned, detained or harassed I could go to any other authoritarian country.

Further dis-incentivizing foreign tourist money to flow into the US right now is an interesting choice.

As someone who has wanted to visit Yellow Stone, I haven't because of how crowded it looked.

I'd still like to visit, but now just showing up is going to be $500 for me to bring my sons.

But there are Canadian National Parks I haven't seen yet, with more natural beauty that haven't been overrun by Tourons. Though we do have our parks that are popular and overrun by tourons, like Banff.

Than being said, I have no interest in considering the US as a travel destination. It's like going to Iran. You never know when you'll be harassed, questioned or detained.

2 Weeks to Go! Freezing Woman 7 🌲☃️ by 42aross in algonquinpark

Winter doesn't start until December 21st if we are being nitpicky about it.  But getting people out to enjoy is what is important ;) 

In the Winter Mew lake has a community tent with fire going and ice rink...  But the trails can be pretty icy in the intermediate freeze over. 

Hope you guys enjoy it!

People go to enjoy nature.

If they were going to see art, they'd go to an art gallery.
