Description

The giant of the Cascades, Mount Rainier towers over western Washington state and beckons for exploration of its geological marvels and hardy wildlife. The forests, alpine meadows, rocky ridges, and rivers around this active volcano are home to Cutthroat Trout, Elk, Black Bears, Mountain Goats, Northern Alligator Lizards, Cascade Frogs, and Canada Jays, among many other animals typical of the Pacific Northwest. To help you navigate the park and get better acquainted with its fauna, we have created this nature set, which consists of two pieces: the 12-panel folding pocket guide, Washington State Wildlife, a beautifully illustrated overview of 140 common mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, seashore creatures, butterflies, and other insects plus an ecoregion map showing over 20 wildlife-viewing hotspots and learning sites; and the National Geographic's Mt. Rainier National Park Trails Illustrated Map, a folded waterproof map that highlights hundreds of points of interest as well as detailed topographic information, useful traveling tips, and regional information. Both parts of this set are weather-resistant, making this two-pack a terrific companion for educators, learners, naturalists, hikers, and wildlife enthusiasts. Made in the USA.
