The badlands are a weird wonderful picturesque scene of sharp ridges, steep gullies and knobs that have been whipped into this shape by wind and water. 160 square miles of this bizarre land have been reserved in our National Parks System.
We took the 30 mile ride around the badlands loop. All along the way there are stops for viewing and opicture taking. If hiking is your thing, you will love the badlands. They even have a night hike here.
As you look at these pictures, imagine how crossing this land must have tortured early day travelers.

What amazing pictures Dawn, it sure looks barren out there. I wouldn't like to have to travel through there a couple of centuries ago.
