Part 1: Yosemite, America's Treasure - Gigantic
Sequoias, waterfalls among the world’s highest, sparkling lakes and
sweeping meadows create a natural treasure. This program presents a
privileged insider's view of Yosemite, a mecca for backpackers, home to
300 species of wildlife, and the inspiration for the conservation
movement. Experience all of Yosemite's wonders, including the granite
monoliths El Capitan and
Half Dome, learn about its fascinating history, and view the
magnificent landscape through the eyes of photographer Ansel Adams.
Part 2: Wild National Parks - From
grizzly bears in Katmai National Park in Alaska to rattlesnakes in
Montezuma's Castle National Monument in Arizona, take an unforgettable
walk on the wild side. This program transports you by land, sea, and sky
to parklands across the country for close-up encounters with creatures
of all shapes and sizes, including the pronghorn, among the
fastest-moving land mammals, and the manatee.
Part 3: National Parks, Extreme Maintenance - Meet the unsung heroes of America's National Parks, the dedicated
men and women who work behind the scenes, often risking their lives to
preserve national monuments, conserve America's unspoiled beauty, and
even anticipate the forces of nature. From rappelling down the towering
granite faces of Mount Rushmore to executing a prescribed burn in the
Grand Canyon and plowing the treacherous Going-to-the-sun Road
in Glacier National Park, their job is riddled with danger, challenges,
and rewards.
