Item Special Note

At 14,410 feet above sea level, Mount Rainier is an iconic part of the regional landscape.  An active volcano, Mount Rainier is the most glaciated peak in the lower 48 states, spawning six major rivers.  Subalpine wildflower meadows ring the mountain, while ancient forests cloak Mount Rainier's lower slopes.

The jagged peaks of North Cascades National Park -- less than 3 hours from Seattle -- include more than 300 glaciers.  The wildness and ruggedness of the park is particularly appealing to hikers and backpackers.

With nearly one million acres on the Olympic Peninsula northwest of Seattle, Olympic National Park encompasses three distinct ecosystems: subalpine forests and meadows;  temperate forests;  and the rugged Pacific shore.  The United Nations has declared the park both an International Biosphere Reserve and a World Heritage Site.
