Today we did Badlands. I think it was 101. Hot. So hot. No humidity really. Just miserable heat.

Many parts of this reminded us of our Utah trip. Sides of the road would have different terrain and land. White sandy appearance on one and fields as far as you could see of prairie on the other. Pictures will never do justice.

So neat to see the bands of color in the rock.

Smiles on the first three hikes. For a minute as least.

ECV wasn't even really wanting to fake scared because she was really afraid rattlesnakes were literally at the sign.

Very neat places to climb. Had to be very aware of loose rock. Quite soft for rock.
