Synopsis: Washington is alive with geologic activity: It’s home to the most active volcanoes in the lower 48, earthquakes regularly rattle the populated Puget Sound region, the potential of landslides increases with each soaking rain, and tsunami evacuation routes alert tourists in Olympic National Park to the active plate boundary just off the coast. With the help of this completely updated second edition, you can appreciate spectacular geologic features along more than forty of Washington’s highways.
