From the publisher:
Established in 1938, Olympic National Park is a wonderland that encompasses nearly a million acres of rainforests, mountains and coastline. The park was created to protect its unique biodiversity and scenic beauty which is home to over 2,000 species of plants and animals—many of which are found nowhere else in the world. Elevations range from sea level to the highest peak of 7,980 ft., Mount Olympus.
The park contains the most spectacular arrays of glacier-clad peaks, flower-strewn alpine meadows, turbulent rivers, jeweled lakes and expansive valleys supporting a rich forest growth unrivaled to anywhere else in the contiguous United States.
