Badlands Grain Fields, Montana, 1999
"Grainfields spill their color across the badlands of the Missouri Breaks, a lonesome swatch of eastern Montana where the Great Plains roll to an abrupt and wild end. The Missouri River and its tributaries have cut deep paths through underlying sandstone and shale, fracturing the open country. Rough and remote spaces rule the Breaks, perfect for folks who insist on carving their own way."

—From "The Missouri Breaks," May 1999, National Geographic magazine

【中文翻譯】

綠油油的糧田把它們的色彩灑過密蘇里大峽谷的荒地。大峽谷是蒙大拿州東部一塊孤寂的土地，大草原一直延伸到陡峭的和荒野的盡頭。密蘇里河及其支流的道道深壑穿過地下的砂巖和頁巖，使這個空曠的田野斷裂。大峽谷到處是崎嶇的和偏僻的空地，非常適合那些堅持開拓自己道路的人。
