This presentation is the story of the building of the Anakeesta park gardens, from burnt forest ruins to beautiful gardens, as told by the designer and landscape foreman David Montgomery. Through the many photos taken of the challenging and rewarding process, you'll experience all the spectacular views, plethora of plants, dangerous deeds (plenty of bear stories), and culmination of the first phases of the considerably expansive gardens. Get the behind-the-scenes take of how a regional tragedy made way for a regional treasure in the form of beautiful gardens created for everyone to explore, experience, and share.
