I’ve posted about this before, but getting lost in the BACKPACKERs from the 70s and 80s on Google Books could not be more fun. The advertisements alone are worth your time. Go try it. Then read the newest BACKPACKER cause that’s just as good of a time.

Not surprisingly, Alaska is home to 4 of the 5 least visited National Parks this year, with Kobuk Valley National Park taking the #1 spot. The park only had 1,250 visitors in 2009. Other parks that made the list are Great Basin National Park in Nevada, Congaree National Park in South Carolina, Guadalupe Mountains National Park in Texas and Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park (pictured above) in Colorado. The L.A. Times has the whole list and more info.
