Beginning this coming weekend, January 15-17, the U.S. National Park Service is offering five opportunities for you and your friends and family to enjoy the beauty of some of the best national parks available, throughout 2011. To read the details of this special offer, click here.  Not only does it rejuvenate the spirit, but spending a few days in one of these parks definitely reinforces one's efforts to be more eco-friendly and leave a smaller footprint!

This special offer affects 100 national parks that normally charge some sort of entrance fee (however, there are also another 390+ that never charge).  Time to start planning that vacation of weekend getaway!

Not sure which one to choose? Check out this list of the Top 5 National Parks in the U.S.
