Glacier National Park presents one of the most prime forces that formed this planet--glaciation. Enjoy the flowered meadows and the green terraced slopes. But, it is the dramatic carving of rock that we see here as a great force of nature. 
Glacier National Park, located in northwestern Montana on the Canadian border, was established in 1910. Canada and the United States expanded the National Park concept in 1932, when they formed Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park.

We call Kaua'i an unconquerable island because of this sense of timelessness in the land and its people and, above all, because of the powerful nature of its Hawaiianness. For both those who live here and those who come to visit, this island offers the unforgettable mix of an exciting present and a treasured past.

Nowhere else on earth has nature produced so striking an example of the power of running water--and in doing so, exposed so much of the early history of the North American continent. The mile-deep gorge and the ancient land around it, disappearing on the horizon in either direction, are among the last sanctuaries in North America of the wild and inaccessible. 
The Grand Canyon presents a spectacle of awesome grandeur and natural historical significance unequaled elsewhere on earth. This is a classic example of erosion--the wearing away of the land--the tremendous chasm's cliffs and slopes of many varied hues. 
Grand Canyon National Park, located in northern Arizona, established in 1919, preserves the finest continuous geologic record on earth.

Water is a traveler on the blue planet. Flowing water carves monuments from rock, alters boundaries between land and sea and, frozen in the form of glaciers, scours the landscape. Water weaves together all living and nonliving things in an intricate tapestry of color, light, and movement. So much a part of us and our routines that we often take it for granted and forget that water--a gift of nature--is life.

The Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area, bridges the border of Oregon and Washington east of Portland and Vancouver, and reaches from wet western forests to the dry high-desert plateaus at the Deschutes River. 
 The towering cliffs, cascading waterfalls, abundant wildflowers and panoramic vistas of the magnificent Columbia River Gorge brings millions of visitors annually who echo the sentiments missionary Jason Lee recorded in his 1834 journal: "The scenery up the Columbia below the Cascades is the most delightful I ever beheld."
