In 1983, novelist Wallace Stegner said “the National Parks are the best idea we ever had.” He certainly has a point. National Parks are treasured by pretty much everybody.

Theres a reason why Apple’s computers come with pre-installed nature wallpapers: the views are breathtaking. From the grand Yosemite Valley to Angel’s Landing in Zion, national parks provide us with astonishing visuals.

That is why we think they would make great Mac wallpapers.
