    NEBRASKA : THE COR NHUSKER STATE 43 larger cities and counties continue to grow. Between 2000 and 2010, the population of Douglas County—home of Omaha—increased 11.5 percent, while neighboring Sarpy County grew 29.6 percent. Nebraska’s population is becoming more racially and ethnically diverse. The most significant growth has occurred in the Latino population, which is now the state’s largest minority group. From 2000 to 2010, the state’s Latino population increased from 5.5 percent to 9.2 percent, growing at a rate of slightly more than 77 percent. The black population also grew from 3.9 percent to 4.4 percent during that time. While Nebraska’s median age increased from 35.3 in 2000, to 36.2 in 2010 — the number of Nebraskans age 65 and older decreased slightly during the same time period, from 13.6 percent in 2000, to 13.5 percent in 2010. RECREATION AND PLACES OF INTEREST31 National Areas32 Nebraska has two national forest areas with hand-planted trees: the Bessey Ranger District of the Nebraska National Forest in Blaine and Thomas counties, and the Samuel R. McKelvie National Forest in Cherry County. The Pine Ridge Ranger District of the Nebraska National Forest in Dawes and Sioux counties contains native ponderosa pine trees. The U.S. Forest Service also administers the Oglala National Grassland in northwest Nebraska. Within it is Toadstool Geologic Park, a moonscape of eroded badlands containing fossil trackways that are 30 million years old. The Hudson-Meng Bison Bonebed, an archaeological site containing the remains of more than 600 pre- historic bison, also is located within the grassland.

O’Connell Produced by Winger-Maasdam Industrial Cinematographers Directed by William Lytle Photography: Felber Maasdam Film Editor: J.F. Winger Narrator: Woody Smith Sound: The Calvin Co. The Nebraska Game, Forestation, and Parks Commission presents “Nebraska Beautiful.” The narrator begins by inviting the viewer to a journey to places around the state of Nebraska that are outstanding for their scenic beauty or historical significance. He expresses the hope that those who view this film will invite friends from other states to enjoy the variety and richness of Nebraska. Map of Nebraska, with the narrator referring to “The Tree Planter’s State” while describing the “new” state Capitol in Lincoln (aerial view), “one of the great buildings of modern times.” The journey around the state continues in Thurston County with a view of the “Big Muddy” (the Missouri River) and Ponca State Park in Dixon County. Niobrara Island State Park (or Niobrara State Park), near the confluence of the Niobrara and Missouri Rivers, is unique because part of the park is a game refuge and bird-rearing station. The park offers cabins, picnic facilities, swimming, good boating and fishing. Excellent views of the Niobrara River, known by the Indians as “running water,” are featured. Brown County, farther west, includes a wooded canyon (Pine Creek) near Long Pine.
