The best I have experienced is from Sahale Arm Glacier Camp in the North Cascades. Nothing else compares!

I truly enjoy viewing Squaretop Mtn over Green River Lakes in the Wind River Range of Wyoming.  Never get tired of it.

 

Okay, it's not NPS, so let me offer #2:  Canyonlands NP:  The Green River overlooks in the Island, and hiking  the Chesler Park Loop in the Needles.  Just wild...and used to be rather quiet.

 

#3.  Watching sunup and sunset in the campground in the Chisos Basin in Big Bend NP.  It's amazing that such a place exists in the Texas desert.
