You need to see these gorgeous photos of National Parks covered in snow right now

National Parks across the United States have been our refuge during quarantine. These gorgeous, protected landscapes allowed travelers to remain socially distanced while basking in the fresh air and pristine nature . But just because summer is over, doesn't mean we should stop appreciating these iconic parks. Early snow fall from California to Utah and Washington to Colorado, means that many of these National Parks are currently covered in a picturesque layer of snow. And the results are stunning.
