The Americas: Atlantic Coast Watch Kit
Where the restless changing seasons shape breathtaking fairytale landscapes.
The Atlantic coast is where enchanted seas meet fairy-tale forests; and life finds a home amongst bright lights of cities. Although over a hundred million people live on America’s East Coast, the most populated coast of the U.S., this is where you will find 200,000 square miles of historic forest. The urban landscape expands into the wilderness – and wildlife here is changing with the times.
