The National Parks (six episodes, twelve hours) tells the human history of five of the nation’s most important and most heavily visited National Parks (Yellowstone, Yosemite, Grand Canyon, Acadia, and Great Smoky Mountains) and the unforgettable Americans who made them possible. Set against some of the most beautiful landscapes on earth, each park’s story is filled with incidents and characters as gripping and fascinating as American history has to offer. Woven into the series will also be a broader, evolving story of the very idea of National Parks, as uniquely an American concept as jazz, baseball, and the Declaration of Independence as well as the expanding, constantly changing National Parks system (encompassing stories from other parks) and the growing role they all have come to play in our nation's sense of itself, its past, and its future.

I had a chance to see part 1 - 2 hrs and part 3 - 2hrs. Yosemite, yellowstone, Grand Tetons, Grand Canyon and all national parks in full HD video with history of how these American wonders became national parks - Just fabulous.
I think this is a must have for nature and national park lovers. I have Planet Earth -BBC & Discovery version, 16 IMAX Blu-rays on nature, national geographic blurays, BBC Nature blurays and this one is up there with Planet Earth.
