Publisher's Synopsis
America's 63 national parks feature some of the greatest geographical, geological, and ecological wonders on the planet. Flip through the cards and travel from the pinnacles of Yosemite to the geysers of Yellowstone, the coral reefs of Dry Tortugas to the glaciers of Denali, the old-growth forests of Olympic to the grandeur of the Grand Canyon. Each park has its own particular combination of scenic icons. In some cases, we recognize them by their name alone—Old Faithful, El Capitan, Angels Landing, Trail Ridge Road, Going-to-the-Sun Road, Mount Whitney, and the General Grant Tree. Each card offers the experience of visiting a particular park with a seasoned park ranger at your side to explain its history, geographic details, and what makes it special. Perfect for visitors and armchair travelers alike, this is the ideal way to learn about our nation's greatest idea—the National Park System.
