William (Bill) Armstrong's photos with the keyword: butte

A tent seen from one of the buttes in Grasslands National Park. The tent gives you an idea of the scale of some of the buttes and gullies carved by a retreating glacier thousands of years ago.

Castle Butte in the Big Muddy Badlands. On this lovely day plenty of people hiked around the butte, or climbed it.
