Join us for some armchair travel to Mount Rainier, Yellowstone and Yosemite through the eyes of an author and former park ranger.

Let national award-winning fiction author Karen Barnett take you back in time as she shares how she captured the spirit of 1930s Yellowstone National Park and the Civilian Conservation Corps in her most recent novel, "Ever Faithful: A Vintage National Parks Novel." See photos from her research trips (including Mount Rainier and Yosemite) and learn about how anecdotes from Yellowstone’s archives made this and other stories come to life.
