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).
Stulp, who is Dutch, studies why his fellow citizens are so tall. Today, the Dutch are on average the tallest people on the planet. Just 150 years ago, they were relatively short. In 1860, the average Dutch soldier in the Netherlands was 5-foot-5. American men were 2.7 inches taller. Since 1860, average heights have increased in many parts of the world, but no people have shot up like the Dutch. The average Dutchman now stands more than 6 feet tall. And while the growth spurt in the United States has stopped in recent years, the Dutch continue to get taller.
