Public Land - by Michael Joseph Oswald (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

This highly useful coffee table book takes you on an unimaginable expedition to the best natural (and a few manmade) wonders the West has to
offer across more than 390 million acres of Public Land.

Whether you're looking to travel to the sites atop everyone's bucket lists like Glacier and Zion National Parks or yearning to put the crowds
in your rearview mirror and enjoy similarly spectacular scenery without a reservation or ultra-competitive parking, this highly informative guide has precisely
what you seek. It goes beyond public knowledge into the depths of public land, our nation's National Forests, Bureau of Land Management holdings, and State
Parks. Hundreds of stunning images will inspire you to gas up your car or book a plane ticket to set off on an adventure to some of the finest nature you'll
find on this planet. Public Land explores:

• Iconic landscapes like Grand Teton and Yosemite Valley
  


• More than 100 wondrous waterfalls, including hidden treasures like Oregon's Proxy Falls and Washington's Walupt Creek Falls
  


• Familiar features like the Grand Canyon and Mount Rainier
  


• Small crowds at magnificent mountains like Montana's Bitterroot Range and Utah's Uintas
  


• Superlative settings like the Wind River Range's highest peak in Wyoming to the deepest river gorge in North America, Hell's Canyon on the border of Oregon and Idaho
  


• And plenty of desert oases and alpine lakes, so you'll always have the perfect destination, any time of year
