Some might call it a fantasy, but the crew at Active Junky sees it as a real gift to American outdoor lovers. From Thursday to Sunday, fees are waived to let solo explorers and groups walk, pedal or paddle among winding trails and deep blue lakes. While many well-visited destinations will be even more populated, it’s time to visit the NPS website to find some hidden gems. A dedicated website makes it easy to scout your options, along with getting details on hours, conditions and any restrictions. More importantly, bring a friend who’s been spending too much time stalking Pokemon Go creatures. And let them meet the real thing.
