Montana’s National Parks: A Picture Is Worth A Thousand Words, Or Is It?

Head's up, with summer around the corner, you are going to be bombarded by articles about travel, vacations, and national parks. Especially here in Montana, where we welcome right around 7 to 8 million visitors to our National Parks each year.

Of course, we can debate which one is better.

Yellowstone or Glacier, what we can't debate is which one receives the most visitors each year. When it comes to attendance, Yellowstone comes out on top, and now, it seem there is another category where Yellowstone beats out Glacier.

According to new data from popsa, Yellowstone National Park beats out Glacier when it comes to picture taking. Yep, more people take pictures of Yellowstone than they do of Glacier. In fact, Yellowstone National Park is the 2nd most photographed National Park in the country.

So, which National Park ranks 1st?

While both Glacier (8th) and Yellowstone (2nd) make the Top 10, when it comes to the Top Spot, which National Park do you think takes the crown? Yosemite? Zion? Great Smokey Mountains?

Actually, no.

Which National Park is the most photographed?

The most photographed National Park in the Unites States is the Grand Canyon. I will admit, I have never been to the Grand Canyon, so I can't make a whole lot of comments, but, it's just kind of a big hole right? I know, I know, it's a wonder of the world and a scientific marvel, but still...it's a hole.

I mean, Yellowstone is a scientific marvel, and the wildlife is off the chain! Oh, and don't even get me started on the beauty of Glacier. Those views while traveling on Going To The Sun road are beyond breathtaking and frankly, pictures don't do them justice.
