Ship naturalist MacLean features common and interesting plants, lichens, mosses, ferns and trees of temperate coastal rainforest habitats in Alaska in this compact photo guide. One of his favorite places is Ideal Creek, near Petersburg, "which has a wonderful U.S. Forest Service boardwalk trail through Alaska's old growth temperate rainforest, with moss and lichen species distributed from the forest floor to the canopy far overhead. Visitors are often surprised to find orchids in the forest and adjacent wet meadows."
