We believe that visiting our open spaces is a powerful way to reduce stress and improve mental health.
Hi there! Welcome to The Mountains Please. We’re Scott and Kathy, and we want to help you plan your trip to our amazing national parks and beyond.
Our journey to visit all of the U.S. National Parks began in 2015. So far, we have visited 46 of the 63 national parks and 44 states. We plan each of our trips down to the smallest detail ourselves and try to find the best hikes, coolest accommodations, and most scenic views. Our itineraries are perfect for those who do not like to camp but love to travel and hike. Furthermore, we don’t get paid to travel, so all of our experiences are authentic.
Explore our site and get ready to make some memories that will last a lifetime!
