Honestly, that review for Joshua Tree counts as a strong recommendation in my book.

1987: I am at The Grand Canyon, sitting on the edge just relaxing and looking at things.
Behind me and around me is a constant bustle of people on the “trail”.
They stop. “What should I take a picture of?” “Should I take a picture of that?”
Note this was pre-digital so they had to ration their pics somewhat in their instamatics.
I fed a cookie to a squirrel who passed by and he let me take his pic with my Polaroid while he snacked.
"OH! THIS GUY GOT THE BEST PICTURE!" said people.
“OK, I got that, now where do we go?”

At least the Cuyahoga Valley one is pretty accurate about the amount of mud. It is a valley in an area with similar rainfall and sunlight exposure to Seattle.

“Haleakala National Park”: This is a volcano. Where’s the red-hot lava?
“Volcanoes National Park”: Same as Haleakala.
It’s been centuries since Haleakala had active lava. Volcanoes, after destroying a couple of subdivisions on the Big Island, exhausted its immediate supply of lava; none has been visible since 2018.

Somewhere on TripAdvisor there is a 1 star review for Muir Woods because it’s too far from San Francisco for the reviewer’s convenience.

Some nice gems to choose from Acadia National Park (I can’t wait to see what she does).
“If you are giving Acadia 5 stars, you are not going to the right places.”
“The view from the fire tower is nice enough; I’m not sure why everyone is so blown away by the views.”

My only complaint is that they don’t have a small area on a boarder section that labels the park. As in the boingboing preview art.
Edit: I see those with the label are the post card sized items.
I can see more glaciers out of my bathroom window than in Glacier National Park. (hello Mt Hood)

Always grab happiness where and when you can. Junk-food happy squirrels, or not.
I’m from Akron and I love the Cuyahoga Valley Park so much I’ve told my wife I want my ashes scattered there, but I will say this: there is a lot of mud.

I am 100% waiting for the Acadia one. The end point of every exhausting trip up route 1 for half the Eastern seaboard. I honestly can’t blame people for being kind of cranky by the time they get there. PRO TIP, EVERYONE: Drive another half an hour and go to the Schoodic part of the park. Trust me.
