Larger than Switzerland, Wrangell-St. Elias National Park & Preserve in Alaska is our nation’s biggest national park. Four mountain ranges run through it, with nine of the 16 highest peaks in the country. Its Malaspina glacier is bigger than the state of Rhode Island, and the possibilities for adventure are endless.

Ten years ago, Augustine volcano in Alaska swelled, rumbled and erupted. A gigantic cloud of ash rose above the mountain and two lava flows crawled down its sides. The eruption resulted in ash fall throughout south-central Alaska and disrupted air traffic over the state. Historically, Augustine volcano has been the most active volcano in Alaska’s Cook Inlet region with recent eruptions in 1976, 1986 and 2006. Photo by Cyrus Read of the US Geological Survey.

Saw the eagle pic on another website without the artist/photo info. Thankfully your page came up while doing reverse image search. and you have the photographers name and where it was taken , and just wanted to say Thank you! Now I can save the info with the picture and give the photographer credit whenever I get around to using it as inspiration to paint.
Photographers deserve all of the credit they can get!
