"The Secret Life of the Deserts: Deserts of the Pacific Northwest" is a series dedicated to discovery and education of the vast and complicated desert regions that host many hundreds of species of plants and animals that live in stunning landscapes that most folks will never get to see. All these living organisms survive because of relationships, dependencies and arrangements in the most arid places here in the spectacular Pacific Northwest. 

The "Secret Life" series was created by Mike Denny and Daniel Biggs and was produced by Blue Mountain Television.
