The North Cascades National Park is home to several animals such as bald eagles, wolves, grizzly bears, mountain lions, lynx, moose, wolverines, and black bears. It is home to 75 species of mammals and 200 species of birds. There are 11 species of fish in the northern waters and amphibian species include a western toad and tough-skinned newt. Due to the extreme variations in rock and soil types, exposure, slope, elevation, and rainfalls North Cascade NP has a diverse plant life. It has eight distinctive life zones that support thousands of different plant species. No other National Park has as many different plants than North Cascades NP.
We had such a great time at North Cascades National Park and could not believe the scenery. The mountains and glaciers are beautiful and even though it was not on my bucket list it would of been if I had know how amazing it was. It is a definite must see area! Today we head to La Conner, WA which is closer to the coast. This will be our 5th Thousand Trails RV resort in Washington and so far they have all been great!
