Saturday - This morning, we drove into Badlands National Park from the Precipice entrance east towards the visitors center. We stopped at almost all of the overlooks and, not surprisingly, most of my pictures look the same. The landscape is stunning but one can only imagine what the early settlers thought when encountering the steep formations.
What is unique about this park is that you aren’t constrained to staying on the walkways. From the overlooks, there are multiple trails out onto the formations. Most with steep drop offs on both sides. Most of the overlooks had boardwalk to the edge.
Today, there is no wind and 71°F so I can sit outside enjoying the sunshine. We also drove out Sage Creek Road to Robert’s Prairie Dog Town about five miles down the washboard dirt road. We saw numerous bison, antelope, and, obviously, prairie dogs.
It was pretty cool last night at 40°F. This RV doesn’t have much insulation. The batteries were down to 65% SoC and by 4pm, we were up to 86%. So the generator was run for about an hour while preparing dinner.
Nice pics!
