Grasslands -

In southeastern Colorado, scattered among the small towns and wind-swept plains two National Grasslands areas remain. Open to visitors but rarely seen, these wide open spaces protect a part of America's heartland frozen in time. Jeff, David and Jon take their cameras into these remote grasslands and discover much more than they envisioned as the remains of a WW2 Japanese internment camp give up the ghostly secrets of a dark chapter in American history.
