Some of these features are safely contained within national park boundaries or federally designated wilderness areas, but few people realize how many acres remain unprotected.

The North Cascades Institute's Christian Martin profiles people and communities within the area; poet Gary Snyder shares musings from his time spent as a fire lookout in the region; guidebook author Craig Romano provides ideas on where to visit and what to do, from day hikes to more ambitious backcountry travel; and Richard Louv examines the importance of preserving our local wilderness areas for generations to come. Twenty photographers including Art Wolfe, Ethan Welty, Benj Drummond, Paul Bannick, Amy Gulick, Steven Gnam, and more, bring the North Cascades region, and the book, to stunning visual life.
