Range Burn in the Kansas Flint Hills

Apr 6, 2008 | Flint Hills, Kansas, Landscape

Range burns are used, in the Kansas Flint Hills, to help maintain the tall grass prairie. An excellent source for more information is this article on the Emporia State University web site.
Also check out my Flash slideshow from this years burn.

About Prairie Dust

This is a photographer’s journal of midwestern images, mostly recorded in the eastern half of Kansas. In the mix, you’ll find small towns, ghost towns, industry, a little history….. whatever is interesting along the way.

I hope this feels like home to you.
