The Flint Hills region extends from eastern Kansas into central Oklahoma and can be particularly spectacular at sunrise. Sweeping hills and vistas come to life as the long shadows roll across a landscape of limestone and shale outcroppings. Hidden in the rocks is an array of marine fossils which tell a story of an ancient sea that once dominated the Midwest. The Flint Hills is also home to one of the largest tallgrass prairies in North America, preserved in large part due to the rocky soil which prohibited agriculture.
