Get park codes from nps_find_parks. Some parks list lodging or backcountry permits instead of NPS-managed campgrounds; an empty result is not an error.

Get park codes from nps_find_parks. Paginates by page number, not offset. The events feed is sparser and less consistent than alerts or campgrounds; many parks list few or no events, and an empty result is not an error.

Returns each park's parkCode (the key nps_get_park, nps_get_alerts, nps_find_campgrounds, nps_get_activities, and nps_find_events all use) plus a compact trip-planning summary (designation, states, description, coordinates, headline activities, entrance fee, NPS page). Coverage is US NPS sites only — national parks, monuments, historic sites, seashores — not state parks and not Forest Service or BLM land.

Covers the NPS editorially-curated activity list (distinct from a park's raw activity tags in nps_get_park). Accepts a single 4-letter park code or a single two-letter state code, and at least one is required. Not every park has a curated list; an empty result is not an error.
nps_get_alerts

limitquerystartcategoryparkCodestateCode
Current alerts for a park or a whole state — closures, hazards, caution notices, and information — with category and recency surfaced first so "is anything closed at Glacier right… Current alerts for a park or a whole state — closures, hazards, caution notices, and information — with category and recency surfaced first so "is anything closed at Glacier right now?" is answered at a glance. Get park codes from nps_find_parks, or pass a stateCode for a statewide "what's closed" sweep. Returns most-recent-first; an empty result with totalCount 0 means the park reports nothing closed or hazardous — good news, not an error. An empty page with a non-zero totalCount only means start ran past the end, so read the notice rather than the empty list. Closures and road conditions change daily — re-check before departure.
