Weaving through the rugged landscape of silt deposits along the Missouri River Valley, the Loess Hills Scenic Byway holds natural features found only one other place on Earth: the Yellow River Valley of China. The DeSoto National Wildlife Refuge is home to 500,000-plus snow geese and other waterfowl in the spring and fall. During the summer, grassland birds breed in number and turkey swagger in their season.
