California

To All the NPS Rangers and Service Personnel, especially at Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks, Joshua Tree, Redwood National and State Parks and Death Valley National Park, You enriched my visit with your generous sharing of knowledge, your devotion, and your kindness. You are the best of what makes the National Parks System the greatest treasure of our country. Thank you.

Thank you for all you do for God's creation and for the Jr. Ranger program to inspire our kids to be good stewards of it and each other. Thank you for everything amidst another challenging wildfire season as well. May you have peace and strength ongoing.

THANKS FOR ALL YOU DO!!!

I don't know their names, but they are always helpful. I live here so am able to go to Muir Woods frequently, including hiking down into the Park.

Please appreciate these hard-working people!

We visited Yosemite in August and admired the beauty of the park, even after the fire and wind damage. All of the park workers were very helpful and suggested different places to see and hike. What an amazing job to have, to be able to hike the trails and to see all of the trees, rocks, rivers, falls and animals. I'm in awe of you. Thank you for keeping the park going and for being there for us,

From the time I was young and had children, have visited your park and many others. My grown children have continued to camp and visit parks also.

Thank you to all you rangers dedicated to preserving and protecting the best of our world. I believe you are overworked and underpaid and have the best job in the world. My family and I have spent our best times in Sierra and King's Canyon National Parks and other public lands where we grow as a family and members of a community. We raise our spirits and find peace and solitude in our souls in these natural settings. In the 5 decades I have been sharing parks with family you Rangers, or Ambassadors have always been the "Park People" whom we turn to for answers.

Thank you for all your efforts and hard work keeping these beautiful spaces open for your communities.

Denali, Channel Islands, Joshua Tree, Santa Monica Mts NRA, Cesar Chavez NM. Many Rangers made these visits memorable. Thank you for your service, knowledge, dedication, and friendly reception.
