Little Squaw Humper Creek
Location Origin Story
Badlands of South Dakota… Those white lines are thousands of rivulets, washes, creeks, and streams, to the right is Little Squaw Humper Creek. Badlands National Park (Lakota: Makȟóšiča) is 242,756 acres (379 sq miles) of sharply eroded buttes, pinnacles, and spires blended with the largest undisturbed mixed grass prairie in the USA.
For 11,000 years, First Nations Tribes used these as hunting grounds. Long before the Lakota were paleo-Indians, followed by the Arikara people. Their descendants live today in North Dakota as a part of the Three Affiliated Tribes.

About This Photograph
This Badlands scene was photographed midday during the month of March while Zedekiah was flying and exploring the Badlands National Park in South Dakota.
Image Rarity
The image was taken from a moving aircraft, as Zedekiah piloted the aircraft while simultaneously operating the camera.
Flying across the badlands presents many jumbled landscapes to film, it is all one large honeycomb of washes, dunes, gullies, and creeks.
Timing and being in the place-in-space for this scene to reveal itself was crucial to this image composition.
Lastly, it is impossible to simply walk up a trail and take the same photograph again. This image was very difficult to create, and is truly one-of-a-kind, therefore making it extremely rare.
