The video was very inspiring, thanks for sharing. 
We are camping in Death Valley Easter weekend, it will be our first time there.
We had planned to visit Yellowstone this summer, but that had to be put off this year so we have a couple of reservations at the portal in May and June. My son loves the campground; he doesn't want to camp anywhere else and has agreed to hike ALL the way to Lone Pine Lake this year...I'll believe it when I see it.
We are also planning on hiking up the mountain again this year, probably in August. We are trying to figure out the schedule with work, school, someone to take care of the kid. I am happy with the changes made to the lottery, with the opportunity to confirm/decline trip dates offered. I did get two sets of permits last year and returned the one we were not going to use and just considered it a donation to the Inyo Forest.
Since Yellowstone was cancelled, I am hoping we can go to Zion (also first time) in the fall.
