After climbing Mt. Borah we were quite happy to find that the next state highpoint in our journey was essentially a 400ft climb up onto a butte.

White Butte is located near Amidon, ND and sits at 3,506 ft. The hardest part was trying to follow two sets of directions (paper and Garmin) to the actual trailhead. The butte is located on private property so we parked by the side of the dirt road, walked about a mile to the trail and then it only took about 20 minutes to make it to the top. Supposedly there are a lot of rattlesnakes there but we only saw one Mountain Short-Horned Lizard (cute but skittish!)

After the hike we drove down to Bowman, ND to visit with my Uncle Joe. The next morning we took a walk and enjoyed the sunflowers that were dotting the sides of the road before continuing our journey on to Alexandria, MN.
