Blu-ray: Ends of the Earth - Alaska's Wild Peninsula
The Alaska Peninsula, a cloud-cloaked landscape of active volcanoes and rolling tundra, inspired this filmic essay of a distant land where bears outnumber people and the sockeye salmon run is the most productive in the world. At the base of the peninsula lies Katmai National Park and Preserve, a wilderness larger than Yellowstone and Yosemite combined, and home to the Valley of Ten Thousand Smokes. Farther down the peninsula, the Giant and Aniakchak volcanic caldera emerges from the horizon - so remote that more people climb Mount Everest than visit Aniackchak National Monument.
With stunning photography and a sweeping orchestral score, The Ends of the Earth celebrates this magnificent land of wilderness and wildlife.
Full version 56 minutes.
Short version 26 minutes.
A Katmai National Park Production. Coded for all world regions, subtitled. 5.1 surround sound.
Katmai National Park and Preserve: Cataclysm and Renewal - Alaska Geographic's National Park Book Series
By Andromeda Romano-Lax
Come explore the raw wilderness of Katmai as you discover the fascinating story behind the world's largest volcanic eruption of the twentieth century. This cataclysmic event not only transformed a remote corner of southwest Alaska, it brought this dynamic and culturally rich landscape to the attention of the outside world.
Today's Katmai National Park and Preserve is a place of repeated upheaval and attraction. First renowned for its Valley of Ten Thousand Smokes and now for its world-famous brown bears, Katmai also illustrates how a singular conservation goal can end up having unexpectedly broad benefits that gain value in a changing world.
Katmai National Park and Preserve: Cataclysm and Renewal is one in a series of award-winning books from Alaska Geographic highlighting Alaska's national parks.
