Theodore Roosevelt National Park is a bit tricky to visit – it is remote for most of the country, split into 3 sections that are not close together, and for a solid half of the year the wind and snow keeps visitors away. For those who do come, you are blessed with views of badlands, historical buildings, prairie dogs, and wild horses. It is easy to enjoy 1 quick day in Theodore Roosevelt National Park!

The Worst 1 Day in Grand Canyon National Park
Grand Canyon, like most busy national parks, is popular for a reason. It is stunningly beautiful, diverse, and easy to set your family up to have a fun 1 day in Grand Canyon.

We had originally come from Flagstaff, a fun town with a number of great restaurants and easy to find lodging that is also more affordable than those closer to the park. It is also a great base if you want to run over to Petrified Forest National Park or the interesting Walnut Canyon, Sunset Crater, or Wupatki National Monuments, as we did.
