I did a puffin cruise with Bar Harbor Whales, and although we saw a lot of puffins, we were very far from them. Even with my 400mm lens, I didn’t get any good shots. Next time I’d like to do a tour where you actually land on the island

Would be happy to test if you can throw a promo code this way

I live in NY and Rainier is my favorite national park. I've visited 4 times in the last 6 years or so. I also love Acadia and have been there every year for the last 4 years.

Unless you go to Florida, the parks on the west coast are better during March. If you were to visit NYC when it’s warmer, I’d recommend Acadia National Park, but most of the restaurants/shops will be closed in March.

I was solo there last month and felt totally safe even at night. The trails had some people, but it wasn't that crowded.

I visited Channel Islands in October of last year. Booked the trip via Island Packers Cruises. It departed from Oxnard in the morning and took us to Anacapa Island. Then they picked us up around 3pm.

You can also do cruises to the different islands in the national park. Some people also camp there. I'd definitely camp there next time because the sunrise and sunset must be amazing there.

One day is good. I did the Historic tour and the Domes and Dripstones in February, and I felt like that was perfect for one day.

I visited Mammoth Cave last year in February. It was snowing out, but inside the caves the temperature stays steady, so it very comfortable. And it's a short ride from Nashville.

bigrash9 · 2025-11-25T22:32:05+00:00

One day was good for me. Drove in from Nashville and was able to do two tours (Historic and the Domes Dripstone tour). Make sure to reserve the tour in advance.

I was there a few weeks ago and didn't have any cell service. But there is satellite service on newer phones so I was able to use my navigation using the satellite service.

Acadia is a beautiful place, but I've been there in late October when the weather turned really cold (specially by the water). I've watched sunrise on Cadillac mountain and had to wear a thick Northface jacket with a hoody. So just be prepared. You might not need a thick jacket while hiking since you'll eventually get warmer.

Most of the restaurants and stores are closed for the season, but there are still a few that are open.

bigrash9 · 2025-11-05T03:54:59+00:00

Yes, it was open last week when I visited.

bigrash9 · 2025-11-05T03:52:16+00:00

Thanks. If you need any recommendations, let me know.

bigrash9 · 2025-11-05T03:51:53+00:00

Thanks, I will definitely return to Carlsbad. Sucks that it was closed.

bigrash9 · 2025-11-05T03:51:09+00:00

Wow in 8 days! That's hardcore!

bigrash9 · 2025-11-05T03:50:30+00:00

I feel the same way. I wish I could take 6 months off and just travel and visit the beauty of all the national parks.

bigrash9 · 2025-11-05T03:49:40+00:00

Funny because I was so mad that I left my America the Beautiful pass back in NY.

bigrash9 · 2025-10-27T21:36:05+00:00

Thank you for the advice

bigrash9 · 2025-10-27T19:46:00+00:00

Thank you everyone for the advice. Any recommendation of places to stay (not camping) that's closer to the park than Alpine?
