Who are we?
We are Tom, Ely and Alaska, and we live for our rescue dog. We brought Alaska (she was actually named that in the Australian shelter!) over from Australia to explore dog-friendly spaces in the USA. We are currently on a mission to explore all the dog-friendly National Park Units so that you can take your best friend too. We've noticed that the dog-friendly NPS language online is vague and sometimes incorrect, so we want to explore these spaces ourselves to see how dog-friendly they really are. Join us for this ride of a lifetime: living each day for our dog.

    So you bought a day pass and were able to park overnight in the park? Can you do this for multiple days? Do you have to pay for multiple days?

    • @kujichaguliaself-determina7388
      @kujichaguliaself-determina7388 2 роки тому

      You cannot camp inside the park even in an RV unless it is at an official campground you can reserve at recreation.gov. The day pass is only good for a day, so you cannot stay overnight in a parking lot or side of the road within the national park. The video showed they were looking to park overnight outside the national park before they got to the park entrance.
