Comprising the North Cascades, Ross Lake and Lake Chelan National Recreational Areas, joined together by the sprawling Stephen Mather Wilderness, the North Cascades National Park is a remote wonder, home to over 300 glaciers, 400 miles of trails and wide expanses of unspoiled wilderness. Rivers cascading in rushing falls over rugged mountain precipices, wildlife roaming in the solitude of their peaceful habitats, deep valleys and majestic peaks make this park a marvel to explore.
