This navaid shares the name of the nearby small town, and the name and identifier of its general aviation airport.
The town, which is in a sparsely populated area of the U.S., was named after a local rancher and politician, who is named after a lover of horses, but was actually a fan of the buffalo.
The county where it is located is named after a Norwegian King.
Passing through the town is a lousy body of water, but the sun kisses the earth here, allegedly.
