Shenandoah
Want to take a couple of experts along with you on your next trip to Shenandoah National Park? Even if you’ve been many times, NaturePod authors Ann and Rob Simpson will enrich your trip through this beautiful park many times over. People like the eccentric George Freeman Pollock, President Herbert Hoover, and the men of the CCC who worked to build Shenandoah National Park will come to life in the palm of your hand. You can discover where to find energizing waterfalls. Find out which hikes meet your ability. Learn who lived here before it became a park. You can even find out where to look for the park’s special residents: snow-white deer. Become an expert on wildlife as small as an Alleghany Mound Builder Ant to the black bear, and dozens of wildflowers blooming from March to December.
As naturalists and photographers, the Simpsons give you hundreds of beautiful photos, insider information, an historical perspective, and you benefit from their lifelong love-affair with the Shenandoah mountains.
No internet or cell phone reception needed. Enjoy stories from the park, whether from your home or from a boulder at the base of White Oak Falls. Go ahead and put some expert tour guides in your pocket before your next visit.
