When I left my campground in Bismarck this morning I’d been planning and heading as far from North Dakota as I could get. Mainly because its hot as heck and supposed to get hotter. 97 today.
Fortunately, I came across Theodore Roosevelt National Park along the way and decided to take a look (because, on this trip, when I ask myself if I should stop the answer is almost always YES). I LOVE the badlands of South Dakota and the badlands of North Dakota do not disappoint.
I’ve been on a couple of little wanders down the trails today, and photographed bison and prairie dogs. I’m sitting in the shade trying to wait out the heat for a bit. I’ll grab a camp site in the park soon and go in search of wild horses later in the day…
