A journey through South Dakota's abandoned towns and buildings. They say a picture is worth a thousand words. Nowhere is this more evident than in the heart of rural South Dakota, where entire towns and buildings lie vacant among the desolate plains. The people who once called these places home often left their belongings behind, taking their stories with them. The remaining structures remind us of simpler times, each holding an untold story. Join Troy Hess, a rural explorer and photographer, as he scours the countryside for these discarded remnants from lost generations. Discover where aging architecture weathers through time before it crumbles into rubble. From featureless farmlands to the majestic Badlands, explore the remains of a lost era as we travel the back roads of this Midwestern state.
