South Dakota has nothing more than gimmicky tourist traps for miles on end...and then there's Badlands. Picture piles of mud, frozen in time and then sharpened by relentless prairie winds. Picture a sandcastle, parts of it carried away by hands and gusts and flows of water. The Badlands are austere and beautiful, silent and seemingly fragile. They rise out of the plains abruptly, dug into the grasslands like a long, winding creator emptied abruptly of its burning lava. One of our favorite places so far.
