I imagined how it must have been during Teddy Roosevelt\u2019s time to ride through this area and to take in the glory of the high plains landscape.  For me, It was a peaceful evening of reflection surrounded by the beauty of these wildflowers and golden prairie grass.<\/p>\n<p>Technical Details:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bhphotovideo.com\/c\/product\/986389-REG\/canon_8469b002_canon_eos_70d_dslr.html\/BI\/9044\/KBID\/10607\" target=\"_blank\">Canon 70D<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bhphotovideo.com\/c\/product\/351542-USA\/Canon_9518A002_EF_S_10_22mm_f_3_5_4_5_USM.html\/BI\/9044\/KBID\/10607\" target=\"_blank\">10-22 ef-s<\/a>, f\/5, 1\/80 sec.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.journeyoflight.com\/photo-gallery\/Theodore%20Roosevelt%20National%20Park\">Theodore Roosevelt National Park<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.journeyoflight.com\/photo-gallery\/North%20Dakota\" target=\"_blank\">North Dakota<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the late 19th century and early 20th century Teddy Roosevelt would ride all over the badlands of North Dakota.
