. David Douglas, Extraordinary Botanist
The Douglas fir is named for this man, who traveled through the Northwest in the 1820s in the footsteps of path finding naturalists such as Archibald Menzies and Meriwether Lewis. But there’s more to his story: mountain climber, associate of leading scientists, friend to the Indians, and, like Captain Cook, a controversial death in Hawaii.

. The Federal West
The third great era in the history of the American West, after the explorers and railroads, was the era of massive federal intervention starting in the 1920s: conservation and hydroelectric projects, World War II home front, Hanford, Cold War era military contracts, the Interstate Highway system and much more.

. Mount Rainier and Climate Change
The specter of global climate change is looming over Mount Rainier. As glaciers begin to melt and the poles suffer extreme shifts in temperature, scientists suggest that parts of the world, including the Cascade Mountain Range, are in danger. What does this theory mean to the people of Washington state? This exhibit investigates this controversial topic, asking whether Rainier is, in fact, the canary of the Cascades.

. Ice Age Mammals and Clovis Culture
Long ago, in North America, lived giant mammals reminiscent of creatures from the “Jurassic Park” movies. Why did these creatures suddenly disappear at the end of the Ice Age? Was it due to mass extinction caused by the arrival of human hunters or was it due to climate change? See and hear these creatures as they come back to life with the help of robotics. Also included is the largest collection of Clovis tools ever displayed from Washington’s East Wenatchee Clovis Site.
