From the Dec. 29, 2015, Yahoo! News "Country's largest national parks hit visitor records" by Felicia Fonseca, AP.
Grand Canyon, Yellowstone and Zion set visitation records for 2015.
The National Park service celebrates its 100th anniversary in 2016 and even bigger crowds are expected.
They are on track to attract 300 million visitors for 2015 in all the parks. This will be last year's record of 293 million.
Not counting the month of December, the Grand Canyon has had 5.3 million, Zion 3.5 million and Yellowstone 4.1 million.

RoadDog's RoadLog Blog: Being my travels down those great two lane highways of this nation as well as news I learn about them from media sources. Since I'm also very interested in historic preservation, there will be a lot of that as well.
The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.
