Scenic Resources for the Future

PHILIP HYDE: Ten Peak Range and meadows above Image Lake     

The wilderness of the North Cascades is a national resource of the future, not merely a local commodity, and we need it all, as a nation. We need a number of protected wildernesses along the Cascade range -- the Cougar Lakes Wilderness to help take care of the overflow from Ranier Park, the Alpine Lakes Wilderness, the North Cascades Wilderness. . . . But we also need -- and most of all -- a North Cascades National Park. And that's the special message of this book.

"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil," we are told, "is for good men to do nothing." Some good men are doing very well; those of them who are in the business of transforming natural resources into commodities for the commercial world are planning ahead admirably. . . .
