The Badlands are Bad-Ass!
So we are finally out of the Badlands, which means we have internet to update! There are not enough words to describe how phenomenal the badlands were! They are definitely my new favorite spot in America! Not only were the landscapes breath-taking, but the hiking we did was really fun too!
At night they had a night sky program where we got to look up into the milky way and see stars and galaxies through a huge telescope. The Badlands have some of the last Dark Sky in the U.S. which means little to no light pollution in the sky! I haven't seen skies like that in a LONG time! South Dakota has a lot to offer, and the terrains differ greatly here, from the Badlands to the prairie, it is a very diverse state! Here are some pictures for you guys to understand what I'm trying to say!
To the left is a shot of the Badlands from our hike.
To the left is a shot that I took from the picture below. I hiked up to the part between the two points that looks like a little "U".
Here's Jenn in a precarious spot! (not really). And below is an amazing view from our hike!
