This was going up to Crater Lake! #ParkChat

A11) I love the chats with the photo themes! A few on that end. Maybe a pipe dream, but I miss some of the park specific chats hosted by different units that we have had in years past. Hopefully they can make it over to Blue Sky at some point! #ParkChat

A10) By continuing to get outside and advocate for our public lands! Donating time and money too! #ParkChat

A9) I learned that even when you think you have seen it all, there are always more surprises waiting for you. You just need to get outside and explore! #ParkChat

Funny enough, the mosquitoes! Haha #ParkChat

A8) North Country Trail, Rocky Mountain National Park, and the Ice Age Trail! New, Old, Old! Lots of fun and lots of hiking! #ParkChat

A7) I learned that you can never have too much bug spray. To be determined if that helped me grow as a person 😅 #ParkChat

A6 *very* faintly. Not as good as the past couple of years! Magical is the word I would use! #ParkChat

The case of the double EJs? 😁 #ParkChat

This is the view at the end!! Highly recommend! #ParkChat

A5) Have a few backup options! That way, if you need to audible, you have options you have looked at and know are good to go! Especially with hikes! Sometimes parking lots are full and it’s good to have another choice! I’ve done brief planning for 2026- nothing too crazy though. Soon! #ParkChat

A4) Sunset in the Indian Peaks Wilderness on a backpacking trip this year! A wonderful couple days! #ParkChat

A3) #ParkChat is always a constant every Wednesday night, something to look forward to! I haven’t met anyone in person (yet) but look forward to that day when I finally am able! I learn quite a bit! I love hearing about the different parks that I have not been to! It puts ideas in my head! #ParkChat

A2) Pretty much on point for me here too. I say the good through gritted teeth as our parks should not threatened under any circumstances… The bad? How long do we have? Shutdowns, decreased funding, layoffs of rangers, shrinking boundaries of parks for drilling… and so on #ParkChat

A1) I think it is sometimes a smaller group, and it is a bummer to not have some of the NPS sites on here, but I do like the move overall! #ParkChat

Me! Checking in from Wisconsin! #ParkChat

A11) Hard to argue against Badlands so we could hang out with @blackhillsparks.bsky.social and let @naturetechfam.bsky.social make us some s’mores! #ParkChat

10) RMNP! So much beauty and so much to do! Of course! We will be back in July! #ParkChat
December 4, 2025 at 2:56 AM
A9) Properly funding, staffing, and supporting our public workers! #ParkChat

A8) I would say Yosemite, but I have never been. So, Rocky Mountain NP? The mountains are something everyone should see! #ParkChat
December 4, 2025 at 2:48 AM
A7) That is a good idea! I should plan something. At the very least, an Ice Age Trail hike! #ParkChat
December 4, 2025 at 2:43 AM
A6) I didn’t know this! That is cool. Would be a fun designation! #ParkChat
December 4, 2025 at 2:38 AM
A5) I am not aware of any specific areas, but I know there are some out west! It is also important to keep currently designated areas protected… #ParkChat

A4) Somewhere that does not have wildfire concerns 😅 Cape Cod would be nice! #ParkChat
