Jungmaven

is an apparel brand known for its dedication to creating clothing made from hemp, an eco-friendly and sustainable plant and fiber. Hemp is a fuller, more robust fabric than regular cotton, so shirts made from the material are durable, long-lasting, and only get better with wear.

Jungmaven teamed up with Parks Project, a lifestyle company that partners with organizations that support U.S. National Parks, to debut a collection of four hemp-based T-shirts. The tees in the collaboration are the perfect purchase for someone who wants to give back to our National Parks while also wearing something that would work perfectly on a hike in them.

Through the Yosemite Conservancy, this tee supports visitor programs, along with the maintenance and upkeep of over 800 miles of trails throughout Yosemite National Park. For every shirt sold, one meter of trail is restored in the park — about the length of an adult human stride.

The Parks Project notes that “this tee supports the Joshua Tree National Park native plant nursery. With every five Joshua Tree products sold, we support the planting of two additional native plant species in the park,” which is great, given the fact that so many trees and portions of the park were damaged during the recent government shutdown.

5 must-see Canadian national parks that will take your breath away

Top national parks in Canada that you need to visit

Moraine Lake at Banff National Park in Canada

I most often cover national parks in the U.S., but today, I'd like to jump across the northern border and rank a few of my favorite Canada national parks. From turquoise waters to coral beaches and arctic landscapes, Canada has so much to explore. The next time you visit, here are five of my favorite national parks in Canada and what you can do there.
Banff National Park in Alberta

When talking about Canada national parks, I can't not mention Canada's very first national park. Banff was established in 1885 and is now a UNESCO Canadian Rocky Mountain Parks World Heritage Site. This area is well known for Lake Louise and Moraine Lake, which have gorgeous turquoise waters surrounded by huge peaks.
What to do at Banff National Park
Hiking is one of the top activities to do here. While you explore over 1,600 kilometers of trails, keep an eye out for elk, bears, and even mountain goats. Six Glaciers Trail is always a favorite, and you can even visit a backcountry teahouse for some refreshments. Banff National Park is also excellent for its scenic drives. The Icefields Parkway between Banff and Jasper has some stunning views of the glaciers, mountains, and lakes.

An adventurer’s guide to getting around Acadia National Park

Here's how to make the best of your trip to this national park in Maine

Thunder Hole, Acadia National Park, Maine

Acadia National Park is one of the most visited parks in the entire U.S., seeing almost 4 million visitors this past year. It's easy to see why. Instituted as a national park in 1919, this piece of Maine is home to gorgeous forests, boulder-strewn clifftops, and a stunning coastline all in one place. One of the main draws is that it's one of the best places to see fall colors, but it's also stunning to visit during any time of year. If you want to experience some of the best scenery New England has to offer, here's everything you need to know to make your trip a huge success.
The lay of the land

Acadia National Park spreads across two-thirds of Mount Desert Island, a 108-square-mile island off the northern half of Maine’s coast (called "Down East" in these parts). Mount Desert Island also contains the town of Bar Harbor, which has hotels, restaurants, cafes, outdoor suppliers, and several worthwhile museums. Smaller towns like Northeast Harbor and Southwest Harbor provide a more low-key stay with fewer crowds.
