Driving along Iowa’s scenic highways is the best way to get a
sense of the lonesome beauty of the seemingly endless American plains.
Most of Iowa is agricultural land, but the 5,000-acre Neal Smith National
Wildlife refuge gives visitors a sense of what the state was like before
the European immigrants appeared and herds of Elk and Bison roamed the
plains in numbers that dwarf today’s herds. Cities like Des Moines
and Sioux City may not be urban giants, but they’re friendly towns
with a sense of history.
