About this sound
For years, park visitors have enjoyed the musical notes of rain as it travels through the gutters at the front porch of Glacier Bay Lodge. Now you can enjoy it too...
Why parks record sound
The NPS Natural Sounds and Night Skies Division monitors soundscapes in parks across the United States. Natural quiet is treated as a resource to protect, like clean air or dark skies: noise from aircraft, vehicles and machinery can mask animal communication and change the experience of a place.
