Washington State's North Cascades boasts some of the most magnificent terrain found in the United States, with its rushing waterfalls, crystal clear alpine lakes, rugged rock faces, and massive glaciers. For many, the North Cascades epitomizes the beauty, wilderness, and history that is the Pacific Northwest. Impressions of the North Cascades offers personal reflections about the landscape from sixteen contributors; each provides a unique and complex view of the mountain range. The essays, organized into three sections, discuss what the North Cascades landscape has been in the past, what it is today, and what it might or should become in the future. The contributors, ranging from geologists and biologists to historians and environmental educators, describe their personal experiences, recount anecdotes, retell history, and call to attention the need to protect the pristine wilderness.
