If you read my earlier post about Agate Fossil Beds then you know I like dinos but mostly the bone kind, however, there seems to be an abundant supply of large green dinosaurs in the Rapid City area.
There is one on the top of a hill in Rapid City that I haven’t found the way up to yet, but it’s on my list.
And then there is this one.
I’m tooling down the rt44 on the way to The Badlands, and this large dinosaur is sitting in the middle of a field. This one I turned around for, so I could get a picture to prove that there are dinosaurs everywhere.
The little town of Scenic is. Next, I got a nice picture of the old Jail but nothing was opened when I went through, but there are signs of life, maybe another time.
Approaching the Badlands National Park, there is excellent scenery even before to enter the park itself.
Once inside it is amazing.
Plenty of trails to hike both short and long and all are ” take your breath away” beautiful.
After stopping at the Visitor Center for my passport stamp and token, I headed back west on the loop road and stopped every chance I could to take in the wildlife.
I did go up to Wall SD but didn’t stop this time it was to busy.
