Birds, Wildlife & Geology

This is the place for birding enthusiasts and just regular folks who love the sound of a songbird's call. From dozens of species of warblers to the rare Peregrine falcon, let some of these "old" birds help you with a story.

Our geology is a story that began half a billion years ago and is still evolving. More than a backdrop for movies, rock hounds know that the Park and the Gorge itself is a geologic wonder. It’s a must-see and an incredible opportunity for amazing photography.

Our mix of topography, rocks, soils, availability of moisture and exposure to sunlight create a botanical treasure trove within the Park. From champion trees to dozens of varieties of ferns, the flora story changes as often as the seasons. Let our Park specialists be your resource and provide you with all the expertise you need for a magnificent story. Delve deeper into our nature story and see what you discover.
