Park Size Graphic

An interesting graphic from Park Remark about the various sizes of several National Parks. It's a bit odd, but the point being that the circles' size shows the likelihood that an acre in the Park System will be in a particular park.

Fairly obvious that St. Elias gets the biggest circle, followed by Denali, Glacier bay and Yellowstone. Or maybe it's not so obvious since most people can probably only name four or five parks and most would say Yellowstone is the largest.
