2. National Buffalo Museum Jamestown North Dakota
The National Park System of the United States is the collection of physical properties owned or administered by the National Park Service. The collection includes all national parks and most national monuments, as well as several other types of protected areas of the United States. As of October 2018, there are 418 units of the National Park System. However, this number is somewhat misleading. For example, Denali National Park and Preserve is counted as two units, since the same name applies to a national park and an adjacent national preserve. Yet Jean Lafitte National Historical Park and Preserve is counted as one unit, despite its double designation. Counting methodology is rooted in the language of a park's enabling legislation. Elsewhere, Fort Moultrie is not counted as a unit because...

The World's Largest Buffalo Monument is a sculpture of an American Bison located in Jamestown, North Dakota at the Frontier Village.

4. Grahams Island State Park Devils Lake
Devils Lake State Parks is the name sometimes applied to the units of the North Dakota state parks system located on Devils Lake, south of the city of Devils Lake in Ramsey County. As of 2017, only the larger remaining unit, 1,122-acre Grahams Island State Park, was in operation. The smaller Black Tiger Bay Recreation Area was closed due to inaccessibility. At one time there were four units on Devils Lake but rising water caused Narrows State Recreation Area to be closed in 1995 and Shelvers Grove's closure in 2004.

5. Ronald Reagan Minuteman Missile State Historic Site Cooperstown North Dakota
The Ronald Reagan Minuteman Missile State Historic Site consists of two former missile sites around Cooperstown, North Dakota that were part of North Dakota military activities during the Cold War years: the Oscar-Zero Missile Alert Facility and the November-33 Launch Facility. The site is operated by the State Historical Society of North Dakota. The two facilities are the last of the 321st Missile Wing, a cluster of intercontinental ballistic missile launch sites that were spread over a 6,500-square-mile area around the Grand Forks Air Force Base. These facilities played a major part in how the United States responded to the training and testing of responding to a nuclear threat. The Oscar-Zero Site is the last launch control center intact for the public to visit, along with the top-side ...

Turtle River State Park: Spring Visual Tour

This short film introduces the less-traveled regions of the Turtle River State Park, Arvilla, North Dakota. Candidly, I refer to this park as my personal 'Environmental Studies Area' (or ESA). The abundance of water and the rich diversity of plant life support a seasonally-astonishing plethora of small animal life (in addition to vast populations of much maligned ticks and mosquitoes). Most of the moth fauna featured in my 'YouTube' films and photographs archived in my 'Bug Guide' collections (2009-2015) were found and photographed in this State Park. I am grateful to have invested many hundreds of hours of my life, cultivating solemn solitude while wandering the meandering creek beds, the hardwood forests, and the varied topography of the Turtle River State Park. This film, an all too brief, 4-minute visual introduction to the TRSP, was made on 26 April 2015, just before the swollen leaf buds on the ash, aspen, basswood, box elder, cottonwood and oak were fully morphed into photosynthetically-functional leaves.
