An Hour From Fargo Is North Dakota's Sprawling National Grassland With Wildflowers, Camping, And Fishing

North Dakota is one of the northernmost of America's Great Plains states, with a reputation that all too often meanders around "flyover country" status. While South Dakota at least has iconic monuments like Mount Rushmore and the Black Hills, the northern Dakota state lacks as many defining features that set it apart from the vast prairies of the Upper Midwest. Not that North Dakota is barren, of course. Quite the contrary — drive across the state's vast landscape and you'll come across remarkable ecosystems and geographic wonders, all unburdened by the heavy crowds afflicting better-known spots. An hour south of Fargo lies one of North Dakota's unsung natural treasures, hidden in plain sight across the state's flat expanse. Though the name "Sheyenne National Grassland" isn't quite as evocative as South Dakota's "Badlands National Park," this extraordinary prairie expanse is a hidden masterwork of Great Plains artistry.
