We had 3 days to travel the 800 miles between Minneapolis and Gillette before starting our new assignments, so we decided to spend our first night in a cabin (got the last one!) in Badlands National Park.
The next morning, we got up early to climb up onto the plateau to watch the sun rise (and moon set).
Then we drove to the nearby Black Mountains to back-country camp in the Black Elk Wilderness area . . .
. . . so that we could get a head start on the 10 mile loop hike-- and see Mt. Rushmore our way (admittedly not the easy way).
