Summary

The America the Beautiful park pass now features President Trump’s face, sparking backlash from nature lovers who feel it’s too political. Photographer Mio Monasch teamed up with Rainier Watch to create stylish sleeves that cover the image with breathtaking park photos — a clever workaround to keep people supporting the parks without feeling conflicted. The sleeves are flying off shelves, proving many want to honor nature without political baggage. Meanwhile, park revenue is up — over $16 million in the first quarter — showing people still care deeply about preserving these wild places, even if they’re choosing how to show it.
