		<description>I assume they meant Rocky Mountain National Park.

I agree that the title is misleading but I thought it was interesting to see the list. Given where the population of the U.S. is, I was surprised more of them were not in the east.</description>

		<description>Boy, someone should lose their job over putting Cuyahoga in a top-10 list of National Parks - most park aficionados don&#039;t believe it&#039;s even worthy of the name, let alone inclusion above such parks as Denali, Mt Rainier, or the Everglades.



I understand that they were ranking by visitation, but that only makes the list even worse, as popularity usually speaks more to location than &quot;must-see&quot; status (which was their title; I didn&#039;t notice anything to lead a reader to believe they were actually ranking on popularity). If you look at just the numbers, then you&#039;ll find that only 1 national &quot;park&quot; is the top ten list of most visited &quot;national park units;&quot; and frankly, many of those are simply driving through the park on the highway and won&#039;t even stop their vehicle inside the park boundaries.



#6 is annoying as well, as there is no national park named Colorado Rockies. If you&#039;re listing national parks, list the actual name as you did the rest of the items.</description>
