use the internet and/or other reference materials to write a 300-word essay on the u. s. national park system. select a park that you would like to visit. find out how tourism has affected it.

your essay is to include:

a brief history of the national park system in the u. s.;
a list of five national parks and their locations;
an explanation of how tourism has affected one national park.

The list of parks that are a part of the National Park Service is extensive.  The system was first put in place in 1916. There are 6 parks listed below and I also discuss the economic impacts of tourism on one example below.

Explanation:

History of the National Park System: The National Park Service was first created under the auspices of the Department of the Interior in 1916.  The first  national park was actually created earlier than that in 1872, and it was  Yellowstone National Park.  Yellowstone worked so well they decided to make it a model for other parks, and thus today we have an entire system.

List of five national parks with locations: Yellowstone National Park, located in Montana and Wyoming; Yosemite, located in California; The Great Smokey Mountains, located along the border of North Carolina and Tennessee; The Everglades, in southern Florida; Hot Springs, located in Arkansas; and the Shenandoah National Park, which is located in Virginia.

The effects of tourism on one park: It might surprise some visitors that the most visited national park is not one of the most well known like Yellowstone or the Everglades; the most visited is the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. In 2018 it received more than 11 million visitors. Tourism in 2015 was estimated to have brought more than 800 million dollars as tourists visit the communities in the park and in surrounding areas.
