I visited North Dakota quite a few years ago and I really liked the landscape. For a Dutchman, even the prairie potholes are hilly and the absence of people is refreshing!

You gotta love a PETM shout-out. All good things must come to an end, and maybe PETM was the end of the metasequoia forests. Read the PETM wiki for a good perspective on the temperature of earth over the last 65m years. ND was great fun as a kid living on Minot AFB. To my everlasting regret Mom threw away our collection of several thousand desert rose crystals found just north of the original elementary school. The metal turbine vents would blow off the roof and down the street like tumble weeds. Ah, good times.

Roughly around the time of the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum, you had not one, but TWO big-ass basalt effusions going on -- one that generated the N. Atlantic Igneous Province, and one that generated the oceanic large igneous Province known as Siletzia (which now underlies most of western Oregon and Washington, with another big fragment up in Alaska). Siletzia seems to have been produced by the initial plume head of what became the Yellowstone Hotspot -- shat out a good 2 million cubic km of basalt. But the N Atlantic Igneous Province eruptions shat out over 6 million cubic km. So between the both of them, having both occured around 55+ million years ago, you gotta think that had something to do with the PETM.

26:26 I wonder how you'd think of Sweden, there's mostly a monoculture forests of spruce and pine trees around, some mixed, the condition varying a lot between the owners, but there's so much of it that there's pockets of relatively untouched places too, but nothing quite like the best of American wilderness (of what is protected). I bet there's a lot of plants associated with invasives in the US, but for one thing one is free to roam almost anywhere, and seeing such aggressive and paranoid "no trespassing!" signs are completely alien to me, as we have a constitutional freedom to roam, but not directly in someone's yard of course. A large chunk of the population own a rifle but it's legally kept in a safe and definitely not loaded at all times, and unlikely to be aimed toward a person... To the north the spruce is native as Taiga, but the south should be largely covered with deciduous forest but it was almost all chased away for the more productive spruce and pine.
