Down the Middle Loup in Nebraska's Sandhills




A few scenes from this year's canoe trip. We paddled the Middle Loup in Nebraska's Sandhills, the largest area of sand dunes in the Western Hemisphere. A thin layer of grass has stabilized the dunes for a few hundred years; a big drought could set the sand free again. Spectacular, and seldom traveled country.
