Book
Mount Rainier National Park : realm of the sleeping giant / photographs by Pat O'Hara ; text by Tim McNulty.
Mount Rainier National Park in Washington state was established in 1899 by an act of Congress. It encompasses 378 square miles of forested river valleys and slopes, high lakes and meadows, open ridges surrounding the mountain, and a glacier-clad volcanic cone rising above the peaks of the older Cascade Range. The stunning photographs and evocative text trace the mountain's violent volcanic history and its prodigious glacier system, and bring alive its changing seasons, its diverse animal and plant species, and its special features such as the Grove of the Patriarchs.
