All Park Rangers

Just want to recognize your commitment to helping everyone who visits our National Parks. Without you many a visitor's experience would not be fulfilled. You guys are awesome. Shout out to the rangers on the Big Island Volcano Park. Visited in August 2021 and everyone was helpful. Hope you all are safe.

Rangers in Yellowstone

Caught the last tour before winter closure last year, though I can't remember the Ambassadors on duty, it was quite a wonderful experience with Family members. Without any knowledge of any parks further eastern US, I would say Alaska was the next best thing.

Ranger at Sequoia and Kings Canyon

A ranger was checking campsites one early after noon. He stop and tells me theres going to be a special quest at the amphitheater to night. I should come meet him. As it turn out this rnger dresses as John Muir and gives a great insite to his travels life and impact he had on our Nation parks. Thank you for that wonderful evening with such wonderful information. Triggered an curiosity into learning more about him and our National Parks.

Maintenance Crew at Yellowstone

I have visited many parks. Yellowstone is probably my favorite NP, not only for the wonderful sights, but it is also well maintained, I enjoy the park tremendously. It doesn't matter if I am driving on park roads or using the restrooms, all are clean and comfortable for my use. With each staff I see, I take the time to say "Thank you". I can tell the staff love their park and try to maintain their devotion to keeping it beautiful. I know that just saying thank you doesn't go far, but at least it's a start in the current world we live in.

Walnut Canyon Rangers

I apologize for not getting any names here, but my Dad & I visited this super cool park on October 31st. Dad had wanted to see all the cliff dwellings left by the Hopi. Beautiful! The Rangers are so nice and informativeā€¦and very proud to be Rangers in one of our countryā€™s beautiful national parks. Thank You!

Betty Reid Soskin

I am fortunate enough to live close to the Rosie the Riveter/Home Front National Historical Museum, home base to Betty Reid Soskin, the oldest National Park Ranger serving the U.S. The park combines history and nature, with glorious views of the San Francisco Bay, and ospreys nesting in the SS Red Oak Victory Ship. Betty served not only as guide but as witness, remembering Amelia Earhart's take-off from Oakland Airport and the Port Washington explosion.

Susan Garland

My sister, Susan Garland had most of her career with NPS, at one time while posted in Ohio she gave tours of the Erie Canal. She always had a calling to protect our parks and served them well. My wonderful sis passed away in 2015. I believe our beloved parks miss her greatly.
