14 National Parks That Are Even More Beautiful in Winter | Condé Nast Traveler

"As the continental US’s most glaciated peak, this stratovolcano almost always looks like a winter wonderland, even in the sweltering heat of summer. A winter visit means much more accessible snowplay, with the road to the park’s gorgeous Paradise area open all day during the season. After a winding scenic drive through sparkling, snow-covered pines, join a ranger-guided snowshoe walk (rent at the National Park Inn General Store in Longmire) before sipping afternoon tea in front of a crackling fire at the historic National Park Inn, the park’s only year-round lodging." - Emily Pennington
