Follow the Buffalo Bill Scenic Byway (U.S. Routes 14, 16 and 20) all the way to Yellowstone National Park s eastern gate. Theodore Roosevelt described this route as the most scenic 50 miles in the U.S. and it s difficult to argue. Keep an eye out for elk, moose, bighorn sheep and both black and grizzly bears.
LOCATION AND SIZE. Once known as Holland, the Netherlands is located in Western Europe. It borders Belgium to the south, Germany to the east and north, and the North Sea along its western coast. The country has a total area of 41,526 square kilometers (16,485 square miles).
Print this map. The Netherlands is a very flat country with almost 25% of its land at, or below sea level. Low rolling hills cover some of the central area, and in the far south, the land rises into the foothills of the Ardennes Mountains. Vaalserberg, the country's highest point is located there, rising to 322 m (1,053 ft). Over many centuries severe floods devastated the Netherlands, killing tens of thousands. Determined to save their homeland and reclaim it from the sea, the Dutch used countless windmills to pump water out of low-lying areas.
