Save The Missouri Breaks Monument
On April 26, 2017 an Executive Order was signed targeting national monuments and the Antiquities Act. Ryan Zinke, Secretary of the Interior, will focus on reviewing national monuments that are over 100,000 acres designated under the Antiquities Act since 1996. The Upper Missouri River Breaks is the only monument in Montana of this size and scale, and has since been placed under review.

The South end of the Mississippi River
New Orleans Louisiana.
The Mississippi River is roughly 200 feet deep at this point. MUCH deeper than it is at its headwaters in Itasca (where it is knee-deep at best!)
That bridge is literally way up in the stratosphere - you have to go 6 blocks away from the river in order to join up with the bridge to go across. and then 6 blocks back to get to the river on the other side.
Watch the little boat in the middle: that little boat has 3 stories above water, just to give you an idea of the scale.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
The Upper Missouri River Breaks National Monument is a national monument protecting the Missouri Breaks of central Montana, United States. It is managed by the Bureau of Land Management. Called The Breaks by locals, it is a series of badland areas characterized by rock outcroppings, steep bluffs and grassy plains. Created by Proclamation by President William J. Clinton on January 17, 2001, it encompasses 495,502 acres (200,523 ha), most of which were already managed by the U.S. government. The adjacent Missouri River was designated a Wild and Scenic River in 1976 and forms a western boundary while the Charles M. Russell National Wildlife Refuge is to the east. The Breaks country was a model for many of the paintings done by painter Charles M. Russell.
