When it comes to the national popularity and economic contribution of Wyoming’s National Park Service sites – we’re right in the middle.
The website Outdoorsy has released its analysis of The Best States for National Park Trips. Outdoorsy has been called “the Airbnb of RV Rentals” and allows people to rent motor homes and campers for extended adventures.
Unlike many rankings of “America’s best idea,” the Outdoorsy list takes a broader approach than just the parks themselves. In fact, their analysis of numbers and economics shows only 1/3 of all National Park Service visits are to one of the 62 national parks.

NAPA VALLEY, CA The Bay Area Air Quality Management District issued its third Spare The Air Alert of the winter season for Tuesday, which bans the burning of wood, manufactured fire logs or any other solid fuel, both indoors and outdoors in the nine counties that make up the Bay Area, including Napa.
Smoke from increased wood burning is expected to cause air quality to be unhealthy, with the heaviest impacts forecast in the Santa Clara Valley due to cold overnight temperatures and light winds, according to the Bay Area Air Quality Management District, the regional agency responsible for protecting air quality in the nine-county Bay Area.
