Having been to 49 parks (many of them several times), I can see your ranking on everything, but Cuyahoga. It ranks near the bottom of mine and yes I hiked the ledges and brandywine. Shenandoah, I would rank lower too.
Tough job to rank these 51 National Parks. Each one has its own special qualities. You guys did a great job! Love hearing you describe the beauties of God's creations that you find everywhere you go. Grateful our country preserves these treasures through the National Park system.
This is a very tough topic to cover as it is difficult to satisfy all viewers, but I think you did a great job. I think this was excellently put together and I'm glad to see Channel Islands get some love. My personal favorite is Yellowstone.
I've been looking forward to watching this one! What a great family activity to rank the parks! So encouraged by the meaningful time you are all spending together! God bless!
Love your video. You guys are really brave to travel with 5 kids:) We've been to many of these parks as well. Olympic is also one of our favorites. We've been there at least 4 times in the past 6 years. Rainier is another favorite, it's breathtaking in winter or in summer. But I have to say snowshoeing in winter on a sunny day, with Mt.Rainier on the background, is truly magical. We go to Northern Cascade and hike the maple pass and see the golden larches every fall. It's a blessing living in western Washington, close to 3 beautiful national parks. We also have gone to all 5 Utah parks and loved them all. King's canyon is called little Yosemite. It's high on my list :) Yellowstone and Grand Teton are another two favorites. We just visited the Glacier NP this fall. OMG I know how you feel. We didn't want to leave. It's just out of this world beautiful. Haha sorry it seems all of these are my favorite, and more. I can't rank them. I love them all!
Wow! You’ve been busy! Olympic is my personal fav! I want to go back so bad. And I feel we didn’t see enough if many of the parks. Our goal this past year and a half, was to see all of those parks, so now that we are settled in a house again, I really want to go back to some and take our time. I can tell by what you wrote that you have a love for the parks as well! ❤️❤️❤️ -Holly
@@janegao5747 Will do! Yeah, we upload a short video every day at 3:00 PM, and then a longer video on Tuesdays and Saturdays. One of those longer videos each week should be a trip to one of the National Parks. :)
Wow awesome so cool nice many places y’all went there and enjoy see and walk hiking everywhere I glad that yall did not get hurt I am so happy for y’all makes good memories 😊❤ God bless y’all
My son and I watched a few of your videos last night and helped him a lot with what his 1/2 can do with Autism I showed him the one about Simon and what is like to Have Brothers with autism him hard because he missed out on watching his brothers grow up like you’re older kids they made him look like a fool he said and took them to the park he told me he had more fun then they did😊 had my grandson he’s such a Sweetheart he teething like crazy he chews my fingers a lot he don’t love that feeling thank you especially to your kids lol my son wanted to know if Marie end up eating the lobster? Our favorite overnight we decided to back to Arcadia haven’t been in awhile I want my kids to see the stars at night and tho popover Sundaes are the best 😊
As a Tennesseean I agree with the placement of Smoky Mountains, good park ruined by crowds. If you ever come back to Tennessee I HIGHLY recommend the Big South Fork National Recreation Area, its Great Smoky and Arches National Parks with zero people
Yosemite National Park really reminds of Mac OS wallpapers in the past. Speaking of wallpapers, maybe you should have drove past the Windows XP "Bilss" Hill in Schellville, Near Sonoma, California. It might be boring as it looks like an average vineyard now, but it might be a bit of nostalgia when you see the hill.
The Toddler Leash we used in the video that we have had to repair a few times... amzn.to/3WsEoOF The next one that we are going to get I believe is this one as it is much better quality.... amzn.to/4340n0H
Yeah, that will be awesome for you to visit as many as you can! We will also be putting all of our videos that we eventually do for each of these parks in this playlist that you can check out here. That way you can know the best things to do when you visit them. :-)
Sounds like you know your Parks. 😊 we had great experiences at Joshua tree, and Pinnacles as you can see in our videos. Rocky Mountain was cool, but very similar to Idaho, where I am from, so it just seemed more normal to us. Sequoia and Kings Canyon we went to in the winter time as you can see in our video, which really limited our experience. So you could be right. 😊 Thanks for watching, and commenting!
I live in California......used to live near Palm Springs and also lived in Washington State These are my most highly regarded NP's in the 48 States@@7Aheadfamily Glacier Yosemite Zion Yellowstone Teton Sequoia Rainer Rocky Mountain Grand Canyon Kings Canyon Olympic Redwood Crater Lake Smoky Mountain Bryce Death Valley
Very solid list! You’re number one Glacier is also Mark‘s number one, your number 2 Yosemite is my number one. 😊 Your number three is Benson‘s number one. 😊 It also becomes challenging for us to try and agree on all of our favorites when we all have different favorites, but your list is a very solid one I would not argue with. 😊 The only reason why I wouldn’t rank Yellowstone and Teton and Rocky Mountain as high is because those are my stomping grounds and I’m just used to that kind of country. We loved our travels in Washington as well, those are some amazing parks, and just beautiful country.
I know something about this park. Also a little I think I don’t want people from there. This is also true that they love the pies here but it’s very hard getting a do you still know how to get sneaking are you evil knew someone who I can pay you exactly where it is like a secret

Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
@@7Aheadfamily I love that you took the time to rate them all. That must have been an awesome debate of opinions.
@@7Aheadfamily It was also fun to watch and see how your children have grown up from your begin of this adventure until now.
Thank you! Yes they are growing so fast! I bet we wouldn't even recognize your kids now.
great video on summary of parks. I loved them all. I am just amazed at how much the kids have grown since the beginning.
Yes! So true! Especially Mark. He’s taller and his voice is so different now.
You have a beautiful family!!!!
What a fun way to spend time together. ❤
Thank you! I can’t believe how fast the kids are growing up!

Thanks Eric! That means a lot coming from you! We are huge fans of your channel! I sent you an email with some thoughts. :-)
@@7Aheadfamily I could do the reaction but it won’t be out for a while.
Loved your latest Video on Waterfalls!!! Still love to see that reaction video or do something else together when you are ready. ❤️
That was a lot of parks!
Yep
I've been looking forward to watching this one! What a great family activity to rank the parks! So encouraged by the meaningful time you are all spending together! God bless!
Thank you! That means a lot coming from you guys. We will have to get together with you guys sometime down the road!
What an amazing vlog! So fun to see all the places in one video and your rankings! What an amazing adventure you are giving your kids! ❤️
Thank you, DeDe. It has been quite an adventure! And it was so difficult to rank the National Parks. So many of them are so neat in their own way.

Thanks so much
Cool list. You guys should hike the Appalachian Trail. It's on the east coast and will take a VERY long time. But it'll be cool to see that video too.
I have heard of that one! That would be amazing. 😊 will have to put that one on our list. 😊
I live right next to Shenandoah. I’m happy you ranked it so high!
We love Shenandoah
My son and I watched a few of your videos last night and helped him a lot with what his 1/2 can do with Autism I showed him the one about Simon and what is like to Have Brothers with autism him hard because he missed out on watching his brothers grow up like you’re older kids they made him look like a fool he said and took them to the park he told me he had more fun then they did😊 had my grandson he’s such a Sweetheart he teething like crazy he chews my fingers a lot he don’t love that feeling thank you especially to your kids lol my son wanted to know if Marie end up eating the lobster? Our favorite overnight we decided to back to Arcadia haven’t been in awhile I want my kids to see the stars at night and tho popover Sundaes are the best 😊
Thanks for watching the channel! No, Marie didn’t eat much of the lobster. 😊 maybe a bite or two, but she was definitely not liking that.
Just watched the whole video, so many amazing national park in US, idk which one is my favourite because they all are pretty amazing
Thanks for watching! Yeah, it is hard to decide, there are so many awesome ones. :-)
You should do the Alaska parks!!!!! This is a great video.
We will! Yeah, they are definitely on the list, that will be a big adventure. 😊
As a Tennesseean I agree with the placement of Smoky Mountains, good park ruined by crowds. If you ever come back to Tennessee I HIGHLY recommend the Big South Fork National Recreation Area, its Great Smoky and Arches National Parks with zero people
Thank you for the recommendation. We loved Tennessee! We saw the grouch of July fireworks there last year.
Yosemite National Park really reminds of Mac OS wallpapers in the past. Speaking of wallpapers, maybe you should have drove past the Windows XP "Bilss" Hill in Schellville, Near Sonoma, California. It might be boring as it looks like an average vineyard now, but it might be a bit of nostalgia when you see the hill.
Cool! 😊 We might have to do that sometime! ❤️ I did always wonder where they took those wallpaper shots at. 😊
@@7Aheadfamily You should try to take the photos of the same places at the right time, just like what Andrew Levitt did.
That sounds like fun! 😊 have you ever tried it?
Where did you get the harness that you use in your videos?
The Toddler Leash we used in the video that we have had to repair a few times... amzn.to/3WsEoOF
The next one that we are going to get I believe is this one as it is much better quality.... amzn.to/4340n0H

I wish I can visit to as many of these national park as I can in the future

It is beautiful. When we went to see it though it was on fire so we couldn’t do a whole lot. ❤️Thank you for sharing. ❤️
Love national parks
Yep

To rate "Joshua Tree"..."Pinnacles" ahead of "Sequoia"....."Rocky Mountain" and "Kings Canyon"........YOU HAVE TO BE INSANE
Sounds like you know your Parks. 😊 we had great experiences at Joshua tree, and Pinnacles as you can see in our videos. Rocky Mountain was cool, but very similar to Idaho, where I am from, so it just seemed more normal to us. Sequoia and Kings Canyon we went to in the winter time as you can see in our video, which really limited our experience. So you could be right. 😊 Thanks for watching, and commenting!
