How the national parks journal printable grows with every visit

Mark off each park on a state by state checklist with the date and your companions, then gather visitor center stamps or sketch a badge of your own in 12 passport frames. Before you go, the planner, a 5 day itinerary, a bookings and budget page and a packing list keep permits, reservations and gear together.

At every park, the journal page records the weather, first impressions, sights and sounds and your favorite moment, while the hiking log, wildlife checklist and stats page show how far you have traveled. Print the trip and journal pages again for each new park.
