As part of National Parks week, National Geographic Traveler put together a list of the under appreciated national parks. And, I have to admit, I had not heard of most of them.

They also had a list of the most popular ones and all of those I had heard of, or been there.

I think the National Parks Service should start marketing more for these hidden gems. But then maybe the people who know they're hidden gems wouldn't like that very much.

In any case, here's the list: http://travel.nationalgeographic.com/travel/top-10/underappreciated-national-parks/?source=link_fbt201204#page=1
