A view into the gorge from the visitor center in New River Gorge National Park and Preserve. Forest types within the park include oak-hickory, oak-maple, oak-yellow pine, mixed oak, hemlock-hardwoods, northern hardwoods, and cove hardwoods, along with other intriguing plant communities such as the Appalachian Riverside Flatrock Community. This image shows the colors of the trees and vegetation on the slopes of the New River Gorge. New leaves are opening and colors are changing, with tans, browns, yellows, and greens among the more prominent. The river itself is visible in the center of this view. While today’s sky is a bit overcast, this image from yesterday shows the park under blue skies.

Having been to over 40 of the national parks, I can solidly say "No!". I do intend on having kids soon & taking them to at least most of the national & many state parks throughout the USA, but, beyond the obviously missing parks in Alaska and Hawaii (Denali being among the parks I've visited)to just rush through all these places so quickly won't allow any of said parks to be truly experienced, but also having driven on many of these &other long roadways>>
