Hanna, Wyoming No. 3 - 20" x 16"
In Episode 3 of Prehistoric Road Trip we traveled to a cattle ranch / wind farm outside the town of Hanna, Wyoming, to meet up with a team of paleontologists researching the 56 million-year-old fossil plants found in the rock layers of the surrounding landscape. They were studying an ancient climate change event caused by a massive influx of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere that wasn’t unlike the global warming we’re experiencing today — except, what’s happening now is on the scale of a few centuries, not a few million years. You can watch that segment of the television series here: Leaf it to the experts; Studying plants to understand an ancient global warming event
Our first night camping there I wandered away from our tents and down into a valley to, well, I needed to pee, and it was dark and we were remote in most every sense of the word. After, this most glorious sunset was there to beckon me back to camp.
