The Badlands are a perfect spot for catching sunsets. It is just spectacular over the rocks. Be sure to watch out for the Bighorn sheep they will run you off the rocks so they can get to their sleeping area. When we were there they had their babies with them and they were super cute!

The scale, the colors, and steep canyons are a feast for the eyes. Badlands National Park in South Dakota consists of more than 240,000 acres of protected prairie grasslands, meadows and valleys. Beautiful landscapes, spires, and rock formations are not the only cool things you will see here. There is also wildlife and plant life. Known as the Land of Fossils, there are sediments and fossils found here that date back millions of years. Read more about the park, fossil finds, and other features on my website!

We found an amazing boondocking location just outside the Badlands National Park. If you are not familiar with boondocking it is where you park your camper on free land such as BLM or forest land for free. This location was great for sunsets and quick trips into Wall, SD or to go into the National Park.

The Notch Trail is possibly the most popular trail in Badlands National Park, South Dakota. Upon our arrival, we met with 3 bighorn sheep right from the trailhead! The hike is just 1.3 miles with 131 feet of climbing and features a cool wooden ladder. It shows off the unique landscape and offers a beautiful view at the end. We camped just outside of the park in quite possibly our favorite boondocking location yet. I was able to fly the drone to really appreciate this incredible, rugged landscape. Thanks for watching!
