    North Cascades National Park has the most extensive glacial system in the contiguous United States, with over 300 glaciers. There are over 400 miles of trail here, home to black bears, mountain goats, mule deer, and over 200 species of birds. These mountain ranges are sometimes called the "American Alps," with awe-inspiring mountain peaks at a lower elevation.
