North Dakota Outdoors Photos

North Dakota is the best-kept secret in the outdoor world. Outdoor activities, including photography, abound. On this page are some photos taken by the staff of www.GreatSportingLinks.com which we would like to share with you. Please enjoy.


This string of mule deer was photographed in early spring. You can see the deer on the right-hand side of the picture and about half way up. There were 14 deer altogether but we had to cut some of them out of the picture in order to fit it into the space provided. They ran down into the coulee and crossed over a saddle just to the left of the juniper trees on the left edge of the picture.
 

 


Below: the enormity of the North Dakota Badlands is almost breath-taking. Mule deer populations are generally good in ND right now. The author counted 82 in a 2 mile X 3 mile area of public land.
