Two Buttes Mountain


Not nearly as far away as the mountain appears, this illussionary mountain rises from the prairie in a long slope to twin peaks, most often referred to as Two Buttes Mountain. This prairie, mostly never plowed feeds cattle and spreads as far as the eye can see. The eastern horizon may be as far as 40 miles from the standing point of this photo taken midway between Lamar and Springfield.
