A series of travelogue gags, focusing on national parks and wildlife. In Yosemite, we meet a bear and a deer; the bear enforces his own �do not feed� sign; the deer greets us with �hello, big boy.� A desperate scoutmaster asks to use a gas station washroom, then calls his troop of hundreds. A fire ranger spots a discarded cigar and races to pick it up - and smoke it. Alaska: A husky dog reads a mileage sign and sets off for California (beginning a running gag). A ferocious bobcat stalks a cute defenseless baby quail. The desert: we see our dog again; a lizard sheds its skin like a stripper. Because the next scene is scary, the screen is split: for the grownups, a scary gila monster; for the children, a little girl reciting �Mary Had a Little Lamb� and snarling at the reptile when she finishes. The Grand Canyon: A tourist testing the echo hears an operator: �I�m sorry, they do not answer� (and the dog, again). Beavers build the Hoover Dam. The dog reaches California, where he makes for the giant redwoods.
