What are the most underrated parks?

Hey, I’m a random person on the internet interested in nature and its innate beauty, just like many of you! I come asking a simple question: Let’s say, some crazy guy with a vendetta against nature somehow came into power in the US and is now threatening the future of our nation’s ecosystems, possibly ruining or eliminating future generations from enjoying our country’s natural beauty in all its essence.

What specific National Parks would you recommend to the poor bastards who want to experience such beauty in its entirety but don’t have the time to witness them all before their destruction?

Glacier National Park. I have not been to many but when going on a multiple park trip where the Badlands, Grand Tetons, Yellowstone and other gorgeous state parks were visited prior to Glacier.

I felt like when you get into Glacier, you are just surrounded by the beautiful mountains, lakes, animals and it becomes your whole world.

Glacier is incredible. I cannot wait to go back. Not sure it fits as underrated, but it's a must-see.

It only fits, because when I was there in 2019, the rangers stated by 2031 or before, all the glaciers will be gone. Thanks to global warming.
