Briggs, your respectful and understated narration of facts I never knew, coupled with mellow music and astounding cinematography, make this one of your best videos ever. Bravo.
I just wanted to add, you're a fantastic presenter. Your excellent voice, great content and footage, tasteful appropriate music, great topics and editing - nobody does it better!
Awesome video, Briggs. Glacier National Park in Montana wasn't featured, but I highly recommend it. Be sure to make your reservations online for the sections you want to visit. You can avoid the reservation, if you get in before 0600 or after 1500. Watch out for ground squirrels, the most aggressive animals in the park. 😂 A follow up video on National Monuments would be appreciated.
He called Glacier Bay NP, Glacier, and forgot to mention Glacier NP in Mont. You're right about it being wondrous. The mountain goats can be pretty aggressive when they smell corn chips.
The national parks I've seen: Arches, Bryce Canyon, Capitol Reef, Everglades, Grand Teton, Shenandoah, Virgin Islands, and Yellowstone. And like Briggs, I feel like there's so much more I want to see. Mammoth Cave is next in my travel plans. Briggs, it would be cool if you made video of the largest or most-visited state parks in all 50 states.
I must commend you on this video! Excellent speaking voice. Just the right amount of information on each park. Now do the rest of the national parks. Thank you, respectfully, Wally
Mr. Briggs. Thank you for such a wonderful overview of our national parks. I would really like to see more videos of America's national parks and monuments. Here's another idea; make a video that highlights some of Oregon's state and county parks. Ecola state park in Cannon Beach immediately comes to mind.
If you do state parks, please don't forget Palo Duro Canyon State Park in Texas. The canyon is the largest one in the US outside of the Grand Canyon. It's impressive because it seemingly comes out of nowhere. The land is flat and all of a sudden, there's a huge, beautiful canyon. Thanks for all your videos. I enjoy them.
This was one of the more relaxing and peaceful videos I've seen from this channel. Just nice to watch and listen to the music and calm narrative. It's a nice break from the usual sarcastic voice narrative.
And all you had to do was sign your life away before your brain was even fully developed enough to make a life threatening decision like joining the military. I love my military, I just hate how people are used as pawns in another persons agenda. 😔 Thanks for your service! 🙏
You should do a video on the most family / community oriented cities / states in the United States! I think a lot of people are wanting to move away from the hustle and bustle, but not to live lonely, but to live in community.
You missed the smallest National Park: Gateway Arch in St. Louis, MO, which is just a city park along the Mississippi River. Elevated to N.P. status in 2018.
Nice video; brings back many memories. Having been stationed in all four corners of the U.S. during my twenty four years of military service, I consider myself blessed to have seen many of these national parks.
State parks! Yes! I'm guessing you'd have to do it in segments because each state has so many state parks. But I wonder...are Army Corps of Engineers reservoirs considered state parks or something else? Thanks, Briggs! Another fabulous video!!
I love my national park pass. Best $80 I spend, every year. Love being able to just pull in and see some of the most stunning sites I've ever seen, anytime I'm passing by and have the time.
I lived in Death Valley National Monument back in 1979. It became a national park in 1994. I wish my legs were still good, I'd go back there for a job. A friend of mine, Susan worked at Bryce Canyon, and Death Valley as well.
Out of all the national parks I love Saguaro NP the best. I just love the Sonoran Desert. But Yellowstone is a close second having lived there for 4.5 years. Great video Briggs.
Great video. I’ve visited a few but well under half! … so I’ve been super impressed with some of the state parks. Northern New Mexico has some great ones. Have fun out there
Wonderful content, truly magnificent information indeed. Please note, however, that Guadalupe Mountains National Park is not in Hawaii, rather in Texas. Not to worry, it’s unlikely many caught this. Thanks for a great video, good sir.
Great video!! Being from Philly, there aren't many national parks around here but there are tons of state parks and preserves around here that deserve some love! -Rick W
Thank you for the video. I live in Chico Northern California and If one goes up hwy 32 into the Sierra Nevada's you'll come to hwy 89. Then turn left until you get to the Park. Lasson National Park is about 62 miles north east of Chico the city where I live.
Have been to at least fifteen, and yes, please do the national monuments. They, too, are a sight to behold. I have been losing count on the monuments I have seen.
Really liked this one. Relaxing music & informative. I really need to get on the road and see these beautiful places while I can. National monuments and State Parks please.
I'd love one on the national Monuments, but also on State Parks even more so. I live in NY and I'd love to see one featuring the Adirondacks. Also in retirement travel I'd love to visit State parks as well as national Parks.
How cool is this Dr. Briggs, a national park just north of the San Fernando Valley in Agoura Ca. I lived many years ago near there:Cheeseboro/Palo Comado Canyon
Don't know if it counts, but the Gulf Islands National Seashore. When we stay in Pensacola, we go over to Gulf Islands for a beach you almost have to yourself. Also, on Tues/Thurs during show season, the Blue Angels get up for practice from NAS Pensacola across the bay, so you get your own little airshow.
You didn’t mention Glacier National Park. You did call Glacier Bay NP Glacier in the intro, but they are two distinct parks. Glacier NP is one of the most beautiful parks I’ve been to, and I’ve been to many of the ones mentioned in this post.
Carlsbad Caverns and White Sands in NM are both pretty amazing National Parks.
Heartily agree--New Mexico has much to offer outdoors.
Absolutely! Take it further! State Parks, National Monuments...all sorts of possibilities
Briggs, your respectful and understated narration of facts I never knew, coupled with mellow music and astounding cinematography, make this one of your best videos ever. Bravo.
Thank you. Please share the video if you could. I love this type of video. They just don’t get the views
National Parks are the jewels of our country...its hard to believe that there are so many amazingly beautiful places just in our country
From a fellow Army puke, I agree that, the national park system is “Americas best idea”.
Yes! Do more like this. 😎
More like this, please! We love the positive videos. I would love to see you do a series on all the state parks.
A different approach, no jokes just straightforwardness; thanks for featuring the Utah parks.
I just wanted to add, you're a fantastic presenter. Your excellent voice, great content and footage, tasteful appropriate music, great topics and editing - nobody does it better!
Beautiful tour of U.S. National Parks. A pleasure to watch. Yes, please do one on our beautiful state parks too.
Awesome video, Briggs. Glacier National Park in Montana wasn't featured, but I highly recommend it. Be sure to make your reservations online for the sections you want to visit. You can avoid the reservation, if you get in before 0600 or after 1500. Watch out for ground squirrels, the most aggressive animals in the park. 😂
A follow up video on National Monuments would be appreciated.
Glad I'm not the only one that caught that!! GLACIER WAS STUNNING. STUNNNING.
He called Glacier Bay NP, Glacier, and forgot to mention Glacier NP in Mont. You're right about it being wondrous. The mountain goats can be pretty aggressive when they smell corn chips.
He left it out so fewer people will visit 🤫
Ground squirrels? What about the estimated 300 grizzly bears?
Absolutely gorgeous- all of them! Definitely the best idea ever. Would love to hear about the most visited state park in each state.
Love the positive, relaxing vibe of this video. There’s not a sane person in this world who would dislike it.
This was so nice I don't have words for it. This was a totally different vibe for you briggs. And I am here for all of it. Gorgeous listings!
The national parks I've seen: Arches, Bryce Canyon, Capitol Reef, Everglades, Grand Teton, Shenandoah, Virgin Islands, and Yellowstone. And like Briggs, I feel like there's so much more I want to see. Mammoth Cave is next in my travel plans.

Now do the rest of the national parks. Thank you, respectfully, Wally
Yes and yes. Please do National Monuments, State Parks, and maybe National Forests, too. Nice work!
thank you, a very soothing video to watch
Glad you enjoyed it!
Loved this Briggs. Chill, to the point. Pretty pictures.
Wonderful! Yes, bring on the National Monuments! You may have to do that in a couple of videos.
Great presentation! We noticed White Sands National Park in New Mexico wasn’t mentioned.
Congaree NP also has Synchronous flashing fire flies. All of em blink on and off in unison.

I love ❤ Cannon beach

America is truly beautiful 🇺🇸💕
Colorado National Monument, just outside of Grand Junction. I'm surprised this one hasn't become a national park. The 45-minute drive is amazing.
This was one of the more relaxing and peaceful videos I've seen from this channel. Just nice to watch and listen to the music and calm narrative. It's a nice break from the usual sarcastic voice narrative.
Military and Veterans get your no fee pass.
As well as those with disabilities! America, the beautiful Access pass! Not valid at the national monuments like Mt. Rushmore.
Agreed! I got my pass right at the gate of Zion National park
For some reason I read that as no pet fee pass lol😒😅
I’ve had mine for a few years now.
And all you had to do was sign your life away before your brain was even fully developed enough to make a life threatening decision like joining the military.
I love my military, I just hate how people are used as pawns in another persons agenda. 😔
Thanks for your service! 🙏
This is incredible. Expects tons of reaction videos from this one.
Probably.
Great video. There were a lot of parks I have never heard of. Yes, a national monuments video would be very nice to see. Thanks for all you do.
Nice video, Briggs. Thanks!
Thanks for watching.
Your best video yet! Thank you! Lets do National Forests next.
You should do a video on the most family / community oriented cities / states in the United States!
I think a lot of people are wanting to move away from the hustle and bustle, but not to live lonely, but to live in community.
State Parks would be the bomb....Those parks along with COE parks are my go to when RV camping if possible...
Glorious! Yes, more videos like this!
You missed the smallest National Park: Gateway Arch in St. Louis, MO, which is just a city park along the Mississippi River. Elevated to N.P. status in 2018.
Loved this. Thank you ❤
Glad you enjoyed it!
Nice video; brings back many memories. Having been stationed in all four corners of the U.S. during my twenty four years of military service, I consider myself blessed to have seen many of these national parks.
Beautiful! Great job. How about doing the National Forests?
Yes I I would love another video like this please do.
Super great video, man. Does UA-cam let you edit voiceover after uploading? You left the “lā” out of Haleakalā
Thank you so much for this video and everything you do. I love you channel and this is just beautiful
Thank you so much!
Thanks so much Briggs for this video 🤗
State parks! Yes! I'm guessing you'd have to do it in segments because each state has so many state parks. But I wonder...are Army Corps of Engineers reservoirs considered state parks or something else? Thanks, Briggs! Another fabulous video!!
Beautiful video this was your best work yet.
Very well done.
I love my national park pass. Best $80 I spend, every year. Love being able to just pull in and see some of the most stunning sites I've ever seen, anytime I'm passing by and have the time.
Outstanding presentation!!
Would love to see more like this one.
As much as international travel is cool, let’s be honest. America is very diverse and slept on.
Loved it Briggs! Would also love to see one about state parks!
Yes, to videos similar to this one. Great job.
Absolutely incredible video!!!!!!!!
@15:18. typo...
All state parks 1 or 2 at a time. GREAT video, I loved it and have been to several, nice to see them again. Thank you so much.
I didn’t want this to end ❤
Thanks
Great video Briggs! Would love to see videos on national monuments and state parks in each state. Thanks for doing what you do!
Great video, well done! Thank you!
Great job Briggs ❤❤❤😮😮😮😊😊😊
Thank you for including Death Valley. Folks, you need to check this out.. it will blow you away….
Beautiful video- so relaxing. What a great reminder of how beautiful our country is.
I lived in Death Valley National Monument back in 1979. It became a national park in 1994. I wish my legs were still good, I'd go back there for a job. A friend of mine, Susan worked at Bryce Canyon, and Death Valley as well.
Great video more please
You got it!
Yes on national monuments
that was really cool and informative !!!!!
Great video ❤
Out of all the national parks I love Saguaro NP the best. I just love the Sonoran Desert. But Yellowstone is a close second having lived there for 4.5 years. Great video Briggs.

Have fun out there
Beautiful video. Thanks! Enjoy your cruise.
Great video! Sure, more on national monuments, state parks is a good idea.
Wonderful content, truly magnificent information indeed. Please note, however, that Guadalupe Mountains National Park is not in Hawaii, rather in Texas. Not to worry, it’s unlikely many caught this. Thanks for a great video, good sir.
Thank you, great video
Glad you liked it!
I enjoyed watching this video. I'd like to see one on the state parks.
Coming soon!
More please!
Well done! Yes, a series of North American National Parks/US State parks, historical parks would be awesome
This was a relaxing watch! I'd enjoy a State Parks video or series.
Please do a video about the state and county parks no one covers them.😊
Great video!! Being from Philly, there aren't many national parks around here but there are tons of state parks and preserves around here that deserve some love!
-Rick W
Awesome video. I’ll bet some of the least visited parks have the most beautiful scenery
This was really good. I loved the background music and beautiful photography. I wish more people had watched this…a real gem!
Great video, thanks!
Would love to see a national monument video. Thank you for the beautiful video and information!
Wonderful video. A video of state parks would be great
This was a great vudeo! I'd definitely like to see more videos like this.
More to come!
Love this video and concept. Keep up the great work!
Really enjoyed this. National Monuments and state parks would be so fun!
Do another one very informative
Banger Briggs
That was great! And yes, I'd like to see state parks. 😊
This was well done and I would love to see more. Thank you.
seashores and lakeshores
Thank you for the video. I live in Chico Northern California and If one goes up hwy 32 into the Sierra Nevada's you'll come to hwy 89. Then turn left until you get to the Park. Lasson National Park is about 62 miles north east of Chico the city where I live.
4:05 I had no idea this existed.
Who were the "early settlers," and what time period are the petroglyphs from?
Loved this one. How about one on the monuments
Have been to at least fifteen, and yes, please do the national monuments. They, too, are a sight to behold. I have been losing count on the monuments I have seen.

Wish you said more about wind caves I’ve been there and it’s really cool. How wind comes from the other side of the cave ITS A WINDY CAVE
You didn’t mention Glacier National Park. You did call Glacier Bay NP Glacier in the intro, but they are two distinct parks. Glacier NP is one of the most beautiful parks I’ve been to, and I’ve been to many of the ones mentioned in this post.
