This is pretty neat;

This Artist Maps National Parks Like They're Middle Earth

The maps look like something ripped out of the pages of a Tolkien book: pyramidal mountains like sharp teeth, forests of glyph-like trees, hand-inked names. But instead of Mordor, British artist Dan Bell is charting national parks.

So far, Bell has brought the Lord of the Rings author's style to a handful of English parks, and hopes to move on to Wales, Scotland, and the United States' reserves next; he's already mapped Yellowstone National Park.

Time for another map, just in time for viewing the Perseid meteor shower this weekend.
What I'd like to know is what is causing the bright spot in the north-west corner of North Dakota... Oil wells?
