Summary

Description
English: Thedford, Nebraska, in the midst of Nebraska's vast sand hills country. Nearest town to the Nebraska National Forest (far upper left corner), an anomalous patch of dark evergreen furrows on the sandhills of Nebraska. Says Wikipedia, "It was established in 1902 by Charles E. Bessey as an experiment to see if forests could be created in treeless areas of the Great Plains for use as a national timber reserve. This effort resulted in a 20,000-acre (80.9 km²) forest, the largest human-planted forest in the United States." From the air it is the most remarkable feature in the region.
