Here’s information from the park service, as well as a link to file a report if you have a concern about lack of options. Let us know if you need more help! https://www.nps.gov/aboutus/accessibility.htm

My husband and I have been avid park visitors for years, especially loving hiking, birdwatching, nature photography (both flora and fauna), and their histories for many years. Since my stroke in 2020, we are limited by accessibility. Do you know how we can gather information on accessibility? We find ADA requirements to be quite inadequate.

First of all I love this website. My wife and I recently made a trip to Mt. St. Helens and Crater lake. It was done on short notice after the casting plans changed, so we only spent a couple hours in each park, but St. Helens especially left us wanting more. I’m not obsessed with learning more about the parks and monuments to plan more thorough trips in the future.

This site is great as it really seems to be addressing the parks realistically for people of varying skill levels and financial means. It’s also helping learn about parks I never knew about and now am excited to someday see.

Congaree is on that list now (I live in CA though so it’ll be a good while). It sounds rather different from many other parks, and the fireflies and otters especially intrigue me. And I might otherwise have overlooked it without such a great resource.

One issue though. Your article mentions a scary something in the park. But unless I missed it, I can’t find it actually explained. I’m also showing 12 items instead of 15, so maybe it was removed? What’s the scary thing and/or to do items 13-15?
