Looking for a Spreadsheet with All U.S. National Parks

Hi there. As we transition to retired life and "quite a bit of the timers", we'd like to try and go to as many National Parks as possible. Would any of you know of an Excel Spreadsheet that lists all the National Parks? It would be very helpful for planning purposes. I've tried to locate one on the web, but to no avail.

    If you don't have Apple, look at your apps on your phone.


    Does this app let you search for places near you, based on your GPS location?

    sure about that?
  • Thanks folks. Since there didn't appear to be one readily available, I typed up my own. If anyone ever wants it, send me a private message with your e-mail.

  • There are just 59 NP. Excel spread sheet can be done quickly. The information, and much more is available on Wikipedia.

    Also, their is a wonderful book THE OFFICIAL GUIDE TO AMERICA'S NATIONAL PARKS, 13th Edition, by the National Park Foundation. It includes much more than just NP. Such as:
    National Memorials
    National Monuments
    National Historic Sites
    National Military Parks et al
    National Recreational Areas

    Key site is: www.nationalparks.org
