Not at all.Am I just a cranky (middle aged) man - CMAM? Or do others share my experience?

I love national parks. They are in their specific area for a reason. I love hiking and backpacking in them too. That said, there are some national parks where accessibility to specific camp sites and solitude is difficult to obtain compared to non-national park areas due to the permit process and amount of visitors. Some, like Denali, are much easier.
I love national forests and reserves too, especially the ones that have similar experiences to the nearby national park. They have a lot more solitude. Depending on the national park, it may outlaw campfires so if that's important to anyone reading this, look at national forests instead since they allow it more often from my experience.
