This color travelogue from 1957 showcases the beautiful Cascade Mountain region of Washington and Oregon in the Northwestern United States. Beginning with a brief explanation of how the mountains were formed, we are then shown Mounts Rainier, Adams, Hood, and St. Helens, all the natural wonder surrounding them and all the industry that thrives because of them. Produced by Raphael S. Wolff Studios, Inc. for the Richfield Oil Corporation.
The Cascade Range is a major mountain range of western North America, extending from southern British Columbia through Washington and Oregon to Northern California. It includes both non-volcanic mountains, such as the North Cascades, and the notable volcanoes known as the High Cascades. The highest peak in the range is Mount Rainier in Washington at 14,411 feet (4,392 m).
