In Alaska’s Glacier Bay National Park & Preserve, everything exists on a grand scale, making the 3.3-million-acre wilderness area a top destination for experiencing and learning about the rugged North Pacific coast and its wildlife. Over a quarter of the park is covered in glaciers, of which more than 50 are named. The Fairweather Range of mountains to the park’s west is home to animals like mountain goats. The rare blue glacier bear—a color morph of the Black Bear—is joined by brown bears and other charismatic megafauna like Moose and gray wolves on land. In the sea, various whales, porpoises, seals, and sea lions interact with abundant seabirds. Whether exploring the park by land or on a cruise through the Inside Passage, it helps to have on hand a quick-access reference to familiar life forms. This beautifully illustrated resource features 120 common mammals, birds, fishes, seashore creatures, trees, shrubs, and wildflowers, as well as a regional map. Laminated for durability, this lightweight, 12-panel folding pocket guide—produced in collaboration with Alaska Geographic—is the ideal companion for educators, learners, naturalists, expeditioners, and wildlife enthusiasts who wish to connect more deeply with Glacier Bay’s rousing landscapes and their attendant wildlife. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this guide supports Alaska Geographic’s important work. Made in the USA.
