Seven-Years Ago (24-August-2009) — North Dakota

Gone to See North America Road Trip. Day 03: Theodore Roosevelt National Park, North Dakota.

Jousting Bison in the Campground at Theodore Roosevelt National Park. I was glad that I was sleeping in my RV, and not in a tent like the folks across from my campsite. Image taken with a Nikon D300 camera and 18-200 mm lens (ISO 900, 105 mm, f/5.3, 1/60 sec).

  1. +Gailen Mapes I was worried that sleeping in a RV wasn't going to be safe, but happy I wasn't in a tent… Did you notice the kid taking pictures in the background. There were another six bison in the direction he was looking.
