The National Parks Quiz

How well do you know US National Parks? Today’s Lunchtime Quiz at mental_floss will be easier if you’ve traveled a bit. You’ll be given a park name, and you identify where it is. Good luck; I only scored 50%. Link

    Its western bias made it easy. 8/10.

    That’s because the majority of the National Parks are in the West.

    10/10. I guess it helps that I get paid to visit a majority of those.

    How did you get a sweet job like that?

    The Western bias helped me as well (except I had to pay to go there).
    And it also makes me pretty sure the photo for Capitol Reef is really from Arches.
    I have a (several) photo(s) of that exact location because it impressed me so much.

    Smarterthanyou, mentalfloss often uses photos that don’t match up to the questions; it’s just generic stock-photo art to liven up the page, but it’s not intended to help you answer the questions.

    100%

    But then I watch way too much PBS!

    I’ve only been to one of these, and the one I have been to, was in a state I used to live in. I’m so disappointed in myself.

    90% for me. I’d never heard of Cuyahoga park so I just guessed.
