In this episode, we dive into the fascinating world of national parks and explore the interesting behavior that can be observed within these amazing landscapes. From hazardous driving incidents to ill-prepared hikers, we discuss the unique experiences that make national parks even more interesting.
We strive to strike a balance between amusement and respectful observation, and hope you enjoy learning about the antics and misadventures that have taken place, leaving us amused and entertained.
In this episode, we cover:
- National Park Visitor Bingo
- The craziest things we see every time we are in the parks
- Two Truths and a Lie
- The people who put the wild in wildlife
- The things people do for social media
- Why the buffalo is the king of beasts
- Sports in the parks
- Yes, the water in Yellowstone is boiling
- Dumb things the park service has done
Many of these things are funny, but how we interact with these national parks has a significant impact, so it's important to know what to do and what not to do!
We created a bingo card for all the unusual tourist behaviors we've observed on our National Park visits. Just to name a few: drivers abruptly stopping on highways to capture photos of mundane objects like trees; tourists struggling to open bear-proof garbage cans; first-time RV drivers; people feeding wildlife with their hands; visitors approaching wildlife for selfies; hiking in flip-flops; and many more.
