Badlands National Park, South Dakota


Family visits have come to an end and we are excited to take in some of South Dakota's spectacular sites.  Although both of us had seen the Badlands before, it was well worth revisiting this amazing place.


It is impossible to compare the Badlands to anything and difficult to imagine anyone inhabiting this surreal place, yet the Badlands have supported humans for more than 11,000 years.
 


The Badlands were first called "mako sica" or "land bad" by the bison-hunting Lakota Indians who inhabited this area for 100 years.
