Yellowstone’s winter feels different this year

Yellowstone’s winter season is off to a strange start—there’s barely any snow, and that’s turning classic snowmobile and snowcoach tours into rare finds. Locals and park officials are adjusting, with some tours canceled and visitors swapping skis for bikes or even roller skates. While some longtime residents say these mild winters aren’t new, scientists warn that warmer, drier winters could become the norm for Yellowstone. How do you feel about these changes? Are you worried about the future of winter fun in the park, or do you see new opportunities for different adventures? #Travel #Yellowstone #ClimateChange

Everglades hiking: Wild, wet, and unforgettable

Stepping onto a trail in Everglades National Park is nothing like your usual hike—think boardwalks over marshes, up-close wildlife encounters, and ever-changing terrain. The best part? Even short walks like the Anhinga Trail can deliver jaw-dropping moments with alligators, herons, and turtles just feet away. But this isn’t a place for unprepared wanderers: heat, bugs, and muddy paths are all part of the adventure. Dry season (December–March) is prime time for fewer mosquitoes and more wildlife. If you’ve explored these trails, what’s your most memorable Everglades moment? Any tips for first-timers? #Travel #Everglades #HikingAdventures

Can You Actually Drive Through Zion?

Zion National Park is epic, but driving through it isn’t as simple as rolling up and cruising the whole place. Most of the main canyon is shuttle-only from spring to fall—no private cars allowed unless you’re staying at the lodge! But there are still some gorgeous drives open year-round, like the Zion-Mount Carmel Highway and Kolob Canyons Road. If you want to hit those Insta-worthy views, plan ahead and know when you can (and can’t) drive your own car! #Travel #ZionNationalPark #TravelTips
