Summary:
Alaska, that place of superlatives, harbors only 16 of the United
States' more than 500 national wildlife refuges--but those Alaskan
refuges, all but two of them roadless, add up to an area half the
size of Texas, with one refuge alone taking in more land than the
state of West Virginia. The states of the Pacific Northwest comprise
another 38 refuges, all but 10 of them open to public visitation. The
refuges protect an astonishing range of plant and animal species,
from the marine mammals and shorebirds of Washington's San Juan
Islands to the spotted owls, jumping mice, and bobcats of Oregon's
Willamette Valley. Naturalists Loren MacArthur and Debbie Miller
point the way to these essential places, offering notes on when and
where to travel and what to do and see when you arrive. --Gregory
