Originally aired January 25, 2021
Amid a massive government shutdown, travel companies going out of business, and a myriad of unforeseen circumstances, Andy Magee successfully visited all 418 national park sites starting January 1, 2019 and finishing December 31, 2019.
Traveling thousands of miles around the country, Andy got a cross-section example of who and what America is in a sense that few can relate to.
His stories are amazing and his reflections will inspire you to get out there and visit the nearest National Park site near you.
Be sure to take a look at his incredible photos from the journey.
