re: Good starter outdoor vacation

My parents took us to The Smokies, the Rockies, Yosemite, etc when we were young kids. I'm talking like 5 yrs old & up. They took us hiking up The Chimneys, Clingman's Dome, Cascade Falls, Hallet Peak, Yosemite Falls etc. We loved it. Just make sure to prepare and have snacks and water available. I loved those vacations as a kid way more than Disney World. The first time I saw snow was in Rocky Mtn National Park in July and I remember everything about it to this day.
