Hi, 
Thank you for your question!
Sequoia National Park has many must sees, but the essential sight would be the Giant Forest north of the Ash Mountain Sequoia entrance. This forest is filled with over 8,000 gigantic redwoods, including General Sherman, the largest living tree in the world. Second to the redwoods, would be the Tokopah Waterfall that cascades for nearly 1,200 feet. Thirdly, would be Moro Rock, the gigantic granite dome that provides fantastic views of the park.
 
Hope you have a wonderful visit,

Hi, 
Thank you for your question!
 
Glacier National Park is an ideal place to view wildlife year round. However, if you’re looking to see some of the rarer species, or just especially active wildlife living in Glacier’s wetlands and forests, May or June would be your best bet. 
 
Hope you have a wonderful visit,

Hi,

After talking with the staff at Mesa Verde National Park there is not a viewpoint for their Cliff Palace tour. More specifically this is a one-hour, ranger-guided tour that involves climbing five, 8-10ft (2.6-3m) ladders, on a 100ft (30m) vertical climb. The total walking distance is about 1/4-mile (400m), round-trip. The tour begins at Cliff Palace Overlook, an 23-mile (37km), one-hour drive from the Visitor and Research Center.


Enjoy your adventure!

 

Best,

Telsha
