Theodore Roosevelt is the only US national park named for a single person — and it's the least-visited in the lower 48 most years
Theodore Roosevelt National Park covers about 70,447 acres across three units in the western North Dakota badlands and is the only unit of the National Park System named for a single US president. By annual recreation visits it is consistently among the least-visited national parks in the contiguous 48 states (NPS IRMA visitation reports), which is exactly why the Painted Canyon and Scenic Loop overlooks are walkable even on a July afternoon. Trade the crowds at Yellowstone for actual solitude on the rim.
