About this title

Synopsis

Olympic National Park is a place where life is always in balance. From a tree growing out of a coastal seastack, to life on the glaciers, Olympic represents nature in varied forms.

Olympic National Park, located in northwestern Washington, was established in 1938 to preserve primeval forests, native Roosevelt elk, outstanding mountainous country, and rugged coastline.
