America the beautiful Pass - Annual National Park pass. Is it worth it?

I bought my pass back in April 2022. The pass is $80 and is good for one year. If you visit each National Park, it is $35 average individually. So is it worth it? Let's find out!

April 2022 - Hawaii Volcanoes National Park and Grand Canyon.

May 2022 - Yellowstone National Park

Grand Prismatic Spring

July 2022 - Pu'uhonua O Honaunau Historical National Park

August 2022 - Grand Teton

Oxbow Bend

September 2022 - Glacier National Park

Bearhat Mountain @ Logan Pass

November 2022 - White Sands National Park

December 2022 - Guadalupe Mountains National Park and Carlsbad Caverns National Park

Devil's Hall

So that is 9 national parks visited in that last 9 months. I have 3 more months to go and I can pretty much not do anymore simply because the $80 pass all ready covered my trips 3 fold. Anyhow, looking forward into visiting a few more parks hopefully. Laters and take care.

Today in Oahu, Hawaii 6/30/20: Laie Point Sea Arch, Sunset Beach, Sharks Cove, Laniakea Beach, and Haleiwa Alii Beach.

La'ie Point (La'ie Point State wayside Park) Tamron Lens shot 70-300mm Tamron Lens shot 70-300mm Tamron Lens shot 70-300mm Ditto on the Tamron Also known as "Lizard Rock." There is a story behind this but I won't divulge into it. You can look this up online. I finally got a chance to check this place out. A very nice scenery with a small parking lot. Also folks, try to park in a fashion where others can park and enjoy the view as well. There was a car that literally, in a sense, double parked (took up lots of space) forcing me to nearly park near an edge. Please be courteous to others. We want to enjoy the view and grab memories as well. Sunset Beach A shot under the tree A shot under the tree: the opposite direction As you enter the beach, to your right is the famous 100 year old tree that everybody sits and takes a pic with despite a sign telling you to not sit on it.

Fairbanks, Alaska 3/6-3/9

Here was the ender to my trip before my return to HNL. First time to Alaska and hopefully it won't be my last. Santa Claus House Possibly the best place to shop for gifts if you are near here. It's about 20-25 mins south of Fairbanks. Antler Arch The museums here are free. Take advantage. The arch was close by as well. Ice Museum Fairbanks $15. Good for family, couple, or group pics. Regardless, there is a slide here that is worth the admission. Around the area, there is a Moldovan restaurant named Soba. It was my first time and worth the try! Pioneer Park Closed during these times, its a neat touristy spot to walk your legs. You can walk inside but most shops and attractions are closed however. Come during summer. Pikes Waterfront Lodge This was the place where I initially wanted to stay at first but Airbnb often provide cheaper results. The Love Alaska sign is here and there are some ice sculptures as well. I say this is the hotel that is worth a see if you are here. My ...

Makiki Valley secret waterfall Oahu hikes

Because it's considered a secret I can not divulge how to get there. If you recognize some of the landmarks in my pics, then it should be good enough to tell you where it is. The waterfall is found in Makiki Valley loop trail so good luck. It is roughly about 20-30 mins in from the entrance. I did this with the meetup.com crew. So enjoy the pics. If you find it then good for you. And remember to keep it a secret. The waterfall Enjoy. It's a nice scene if you do find it. You can hike to the top of the fall in which I did. It's like several minutes if anything from the bottom. Just always watch your footing. Take care folks. Thank you God and thank you to the meetup.com crew. Laters.
