On our way east, we decided to stop at one last national park before we start hitting the cities. We had no idea what to expect at Badlands and were completely shocked when we drove into the park and were greeted with no trees (which we've come to expect at national parks), but with huge sand peaks and canyons. Unfortunately our pictures didn't capture the beauty of the park at all as well I'd hoped...
This is definitely the most relaxed park we've been too. Besides at the entrance, we didn't see a park ranger a single time and there wasn't a single sign telling us not to climb around the mountains. So we did! We had lots of fun exploring the huge open spaces, climbing up the peaks to see views like this, sliding back down, digging for water and pretending we were Moses lost in the desert.
