Thunder Basin National Grassland

More than 572,000 acres of prairie grassland in the middle of Wyoming's Powder River country, Thunder Basin is one of the largest intact grassland habitats left on the Northern Great Plains.  Here you will find broad ranges of short grass prairie populated with rare species like the ferruginous hawk, swift fox, mountain plover, burrowing owl, and black-tailed prairie dog.  And it's a great place for viewing golden eagles and bald eagles as well.   It's possible to get far enough away from civilization here to know the land as it was before the first settlers arrived, and to experience the true "soul" of the High Plains.
