You can enjoy a small slice of Alaska's national parks this holiday season and help out Alaska Geographic at the same time.

Not familiar with Alaska Geographic? The nonprofit organization works in partnership with public land agencies to connect people with Alaska’s national parks, forests, refuges and conservation lands through the creation and delivery of exceptional educational products and programs.

Since 1959, Alaska Geographic has been the nonprofit education partner of Alaska’s spectacular national parks, forests, and refuges; the organization supports education programs and publications, and raises funding for youth programs, stewardship projects, and arts and education programs. Together with its public land partners, Alaska Geographic is dedicated to sharing Alaska’s rich natural and cultural heritage.

During a visit to Alaska and Glacier Bay National Park some years back I was able to find some old editions of their magazines that had some wonderful stories on the park. 

If you're looking for tree ornaments or other memorabilia associated with parks in the state, Alaska Geographic offers those, as well. The selection includes one celebrating Katmai National Park and Preserve that employs glacial silt in the design, while the ornament for Kenai Fjords National Park is made out of wood.

The ornament for Denali National Park and Preserve, meanwhile, "can double as a holiday decoration or as an all-year sun catcher. The design features two park rangers on a dark aurora borealis night with Denali in the background."

Another Katmai ornament appropriately is in the shape of a brown bear, made from wood.

You can check them all out at this website.

Support National Parks Traveler

Your support for the National Parks Traveler comes at a time when news organizations are finding it hard, if not impossible, to stay in business. Traveler's work is vital. For nearly two decades we've provided essential coverage of national parks and protected areas. With the Trump administration’s determination to downsize the federal government, and Interior Secretary Doug Burgum’s approach to public lands focused on energy exploration, it’s clear the Traveler will have much to cover in the months and years ahead. We know of no other news organization that provides such broad coverage of national parks and protected areas on a daily basis. Your support is greatly appreciated.
