As You can see from this photo some people of Sioux City live on bluffs which are called loess hills.

You will also notice if You look on google earth that they are all dug into the hills and stuff, I like Sioux City better than Minneapolis. One reason is its alot easier to get to and your car probably won't break down on the way.You learn from this display that a hundred million years ago Sioux City was at the bottom of a inland sea. As the seas dried up it formed the loess hills, and for the next 50 million years the Sioux City area was a swamp. Also a sidenote(if I took the time to add one) would be that do to changes in rainfall the hills are disappearing, this is all part of a cool youth education program to protect the bluffs.


This picture(taken at a slant) marks the beginning of the hike which is called buffalo run trial.

Here's another obviously this was done in the early spring this place is part of a tall forest.

Stone state park was built as part of Roosevelts new deal, we found this interesting tunnel.

This view of Iowa is the enchilada after a lengnthy climb.
