Ash, a former park ranger and founder of Dirt on My Shoes, asserts that finding solitude in national parks is achievable, even during peak summer months. She counters the common belief that solitude requires visiting during off-peak seasons or hiking extreme distances. Her advice is based on practical experience and suggests that strategic planning, not just early mornings, can help visitors avoid crowds.
Ash from Dirt on My Shoes highlighted that their Yellowstone itinerary is designed to help visitors avoid crowds, even during the busiest summer months. She emphasized that their strategies allow for a positive experience without being constantly surrounded by large groups.
Ash and John, hosts of the podcast, discuss strategies for avoiding crowds in national parks. Ash argues against the necessity of extremely early starts, suggesting that understanding park rhythms and implementing strategic timing can be more effective and less disruptive for families.
