The best pictures I could take of a prairie dog with a phone camera. All those light colored spots are a prairie dog home. They call this area Prairie Dog Town.
While hiking to Prairie Dog Town, I had the pleasure of seeing some Buffalo grazing.
The video below the prairie dog let me get really close and didn't scurry in his hole even with the small child making all sorts of noise.
This second video you can't see much, but you can hear the prairie dog sounding the warning to all the other prairie dogs of me approaching.
The Scenic Drive is 14 miles long or 28 miles round trip and dead ends at the Oxbow Overlook. To reach the Oxbow Overlook you follow the North Achenbach Trail 1.2 miles.
The view from the parking area. I had thought this was the trail and walked that trail 1/3 of a mile only to dead end at a cliff.
