The guards at Fort Pickens found out I was disabled and surprised my wife and me with a park pass for us to use. Now we use it at Sam Houston State Park. This year we booked a trip to visit St. John, USVI. We can't wait to visit there in November. Everyone at the parks is great. The knowledge of the parks is great. Mr. and Mrs. Baca

We have visited so many of our national parks in the past 50 years. They are beautiful, calming, well cared for, educational and comforting. The best gift to our each of us.

It was so nice to see a Park Ambassador eating lunch at the close to top of Mt Rainer (8k ft I think). I thought she was a ranger, but she explained she was an ambassador/ volunteer. We had a lovely chat about the view, as we waited for the clouds to blow over so we could see the top of Rainer. Which it did after e 30 minutes, as we sat together discussing the formations. Then suddenly she said there was a rarely seen bird five feet in front of us on the edge of the snow bank. I never would have noticed, not to mention known how rare our sighting had been. That was special, as was our chat.

Thank you for all you do to save the natural world. We all are part of nature and should make sure we keep it for all species!

Thank you for all that you do. It is a privilege to have you helping at the parks.

Two years ago, my 86 year-old father asked me to go on a trip to the national parks across the united states for his bucket list. Every park that we encountered a park Ranger, they were extremely helpful, friendly, courteous, and made our adventure, an adventure of a lifetime. Thank you so much. You all are a blessing. And on a sidenote, I’m a retired military veteran and one of the Rangers at the gate told me about the national Park pass, which I knew nothing about.

We were given a fabulous tour and lecture by a ranger at Congressional Hall on Oct 30 at about 2:30p. He had a black beard and said he lived in NJ. We were thrilled. Wish we had gotten his name.

Thank you for guiding us on a great hike at Hetch Hetchy - we loved learning about the reservoir and the history.

Thank you for your bravery, hard work and dedication. With you'll on duty, our nature is being preserved and protected which means everything. Keep up the good job! You're very much appreciated! Enjoy and thanks again, SP
