Old-growth forests, their giant trees towering over richly-carpeted floors, are one of the defining features of the Pacific Northwest's beauty. But did you know that old-growth forests also occur in near-desert and near- arctic settings, on sites exposed to frequent forest fires, and even on top of lava flows! This book describes the full suite of old-growth forest types found in the Cascade Mountain range and guides you to the trails where you can enjoy them.
