A Wilderness Like No Other

Students can witness the power of flowing rivers; salmon making the dangerous journey back home to spawn; wildlife like bear and moose and their habitats; indigenous peoples who call this area home and have lived here for thousands of years; giant mountains, volcanoes and glaciers, and a land where miners searched for wealth while surviving the challenges of nature. Show your students the riches of America's largest national park, Wrangell-St. Elias.
