Yosemite ~ The Sierra Nevada's mountain range contains some of the most amazing wonders found on the planet. Filled with such notable geographic features including Lake Tahoe, three National Parks, two National Monuments and seemingly endless wilderness areas, the Sierras are truly spectacular in every-sense of the word. Enjoy breath-taking aerial views as you soar over its majesty.
Discover the history and geology first-hand through in-depth interviews with the park rangers and ground tours that take you through the park. Rich in history and known as the place of the gold discovery, the home of modern mountain climbing and the birthplace of America's national parks system, this modern marvel is over 100 million years in the making.
Grand Canyon ~ There is no place like it on the planet. Commonly called the four corners region, it contains more National Parks and Monuments than anywhere else in the world. Go on a thrilling exploration that uncovers the geology of the Colorado Plateau and the forces that have shaped this marvelous landscape. Enjoy breath-taking aerial views as you soar over hundreds of acres of awe-inspiring beauty.
The Everglades ~ There is no place on the planet like the Everglades. It is where two great biomes of life meet - the tropical and the temperate mid-latitude, which makes up much of the continental United States. Plants and animals from each coalesce in the Everglades produce a sub-tropical tapestry of ecosystems that is unmatched anywhere in the world.
The Black Hills and the Badlands ~ Nestled in the heart of America’s Great Plains are the distinct landscapes of a sacred land that beckons the visitor to enter the nation's mysterious and glorious west. A land of soaring pinnacles, deep canyons, hidden caves, national monuments and countless wildlife sanctuaries. It is also the place of the inglorious death of famed gunslinger, Wild Bill Hickok and the most sacred spot for the Lakota Sioux.
