That is awesome! Yeah I'll def need to get back there someday, sooner than later

Had 2 reservations for parking there.. chose the best day of the 2. Showed up to 1 degree (C), 10 meters visibility, snow, and ice in September 😂 thanks for the post, at least I can see Tre Cime here!

As a WTA member, I truly appreciate receiving a magazine that isn't just endless doom. Highly recommend becoming a member just for the magazine sub!

A11 Canyons are fun but can also be repetitive. Lots of diverse canyons and rock formations in southern Utah though, it generally doesn't get boring there #parkchat

Q10 Literally that wall #parkchat

A9 Both. You never know where a storm might dump rain upstream without knowing. The heightened anxiety adds to the experience though #parkchat

A8 Hiking into Bryce was a bit daunting looking into it from the rim but descending through the hoodoos and doorways was super fun and far easier than I anticipated. Would love to spend more time at the park someday! #parkchat

A7 Mesa Verde is mind blowing but the small stone ruins in Canyonlands are super interesting especially due to the lack of crowds/visitors #parkchat

A6 Black Canyon of the Gunnison is a fav of mine #parkchat

A5 They all deserve the gimmicky name if they get people out into nature! Despite going to many "Grand Canyon of" canyons, I still need to visit the true Grand Canyon someday. #parkchat

A4 Pine Creek Gorge / PA Grand Canyon was glacially carved too. While not as stunning as other places, it's a beautiful spot for my lunch breaks. Though that view from the Bubbles is 🔥 #parkchat

A3 Would love to raft the Grand Canyon someday. #parkchat

A2 Would love to go back and explore the Needles! #parkchat

Hello everyone from #ParkChat and welcome to @beckyjlomax.bsky.social our guest tonight.

Looks like a super fun place to explore. The shot of you walking through the rocks looks like something out of Star Wars

I wanted to but my wife was adamant on getting off the trail to find dinner. We only made it to just below Col Turond.

That's nice someone helped with the parking meters. Out of all of the parking meters in the Alps, the ones at Vallunga were probably the most confusing and had no English options 😂

Oh yeah it's such a cool spot. I didn't know what to expect, just saw the valley on the map and sent it.. well worth the time, plus super easy hiking.

Friendly cow along Vallunga near Selva di Val Gardena, Italy.

Itching to get back there, nice shot!
