Do you remember what is was like to be a child, when everything seemed so huge and amazing? No matter your age, that’s the feeling you’ll get walking through the Giant Forest at Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks in California. Growing over 250 feet tall and over 30 feet wide, these wonders of nature are a sight you’ll never forget. Photo by National Park Service.

Set between the jagged peaks of the Sierra Nevada and the geologically complex Inyo Mountains, California’s Alabama Hills is the perfect place for rock climbing, horseback riding, mountain biking – and for films buffs, touring “Movie Road.” Since the 1920s, more than 400 movies have been filmed at the Alabama Hills, and Movie Road allows visitors to walk or drive along the sets of many of their favorite blockbusters. Filmmakers love to use the steep hills, natural arches and windows found throughout the area to evoke far away places, including Afghanistan in Iron Man, the Himalayas in Gunga Din and a Spanish Estate in Gladiator.

Boat, hike, cycle, camp and fish at America’s most diverse national recreation area: Lake Mead. This year-round playground spreads across 1.5 million acres of mountains, canyons, valleys and two vast lakes in Arizona and Nevada. Whether it’s seeing the Hoover Dam from the waters of Lake Mead or finding solitude in one of the park’s nine wilderness areas, Lake Mead is the place for world-class adventure.

Bryce Canyon is a small national park in southwestern Utah famous for its worldly unique geology. Ice and rain have eroded and shaped the colorful limestone rock into bizarre shapes, including slot canyons, windows, fins, and spires called 'hoodoos.'

Denali National Park and Preserve, AlaskaDenali National Park is Alaska's most popular land attraction, home to Mt. McKinley, the continent's highest peak, and more than six million acres of unspoiled wilderness. In winter, it receives less than five hours of daylight, but offers visitors views of the northern lights and a week-long Winterfest.

In honor of St. Patrick's Day this is Knocknarrea, a breathtaking mountain in Co. Sligo, Ireland and one of my favorite places in the whole world. This was some of the scenery that inspired the great William Butler Yeats to write his poetry...from this picture you can see why!

It’s never too early to start planning your summer adventure. Located in Idaho, Little Jacks Creek Wilderness is a landscape of sagebrush, grasses and magnificent multi-tiered 1,000-foot-deep canyons towering over meandering creeks, like the Little Jacks Creek Wild and Scenic River. These rivers and their canyons have what you are looking for whether it’s placid pools or turbulent whitewater; vertical cliffs or steep grassy slopes; or wildlife or wildflowers. It’s the perfect place to #FindYourWay. Photo by Bureau of Land Management, @mypubliclands
