HIKING REPORT: The 'Badlands' of North Dakota

Lovely day spent in Roosevelt National Park in North Dakota.  Not as spectacular as Zion, Arches or Bryce - but it has it's appeal.  The main thing was the quiet, no crowds, no noise.  We walked the trails and saw maybe 2 or 3 other people.  Saw a prairie rattlesnake on the trail - no time for a picture.   All together a simply wonderful day.
