For more than a century, America's national forests have proved an environmental gift and cultural treasure, our spectacular backyard. Under the management of the U.S. Forest Service, this system of public lands encompasses 193 million acres of mountains, prairies, rivers, and canyons -- much of it undiscovered, but accessible for hiking, kayaking, fishing, and winter sports. Officially published with the U.S. Forest Service, this book features the thirty most notable national forests -- while also celebrating more than one hundred different national forests in forty-four states -- from the White Mountains of New Hampshire to the Olympics of Washington. Unlike the national parks, Americans can use these lands for all manner of recreation, truly earning these tremendous resources the moniker of "America's backyard." This book is a treasure for all readers who use and cherish these lands."--provided by Amazon.com. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references. 505 0 $a The East and Midwest -- The South -- The Southwest and Great Basin -- The Southern Rockies -- The Northern Rockies -- California -- The Pacific Northwest and Alaska. 650 0 $a Forest reserves $z United States $v Pictorial works. 650 0 $a National parks and reserves $z United States $v Pictorial works. 650 0 $a Wilderness areas $z United States $v Pictorial works. 651 0 $a United States $v Pictorial works. 655 7 $a Illustrated works. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Palmer, Tim, $d 1948- $e photographer. $4 pht 700 1 $a McKibben, Bill, $e author of foreword. 700 1 $a Tilden, Scott J., $e book editor. 941 $a 1 952 $l GZPE631 $d 20240305015443.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=BC6987805DB111E98D51C54597128E48 994 $a C0 $b IW3Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
