Private cars at the park gate
A local car. At the trailhead.
Borrow a Bronco in Yosemite, a Sprinter in Joshua Tree, a 911 for the rim. Hosts live in the next town over.
63 parks
Every official U.S. National Park, with pickup in the gateway town — not the airport. Remote Alaska parks stage in Fairbanks, Healy, Seward.
Keys from locals
Hosts who know which overlook still has shade, and which road is still closed.
