Beautiful and Breathtaking
This was such a cool experience! There are literally thousands upon thousands of bison that are just chilling by the road. They are peaceful and intimidating at the same time. We got lots of amazing pictures and were generally awestruck by the landscape and the bison. I will say it's not an all-day activity, we went right before sunset and saw a ton of bison but once we got our pictures it was pretty much done. Honestly, I'm amazed it's free. Highly recommend, especially if you're new to Oklahoma.

Picturesque Drive through the Prairie
This was an unexpected pleasure on a beautiful day. The prairie offers picturesque views with the swaying grasses and the blue skies with a myriad of cloud formations. I recommended a full tank of gas, a camera, keep your windows up and plan to take your car for a wash afterwards. It may seems at times that you are on a road you are supposed to be on but keep driving. A local Pawhuska guide features a map to assure you. It took a a long time to come across the herd of bison but there are they. At the beginning of the drive we would see a few here and there. I definitely recommend taking the time for this.
