Today was more driving and then made it to the Badlands and also Wall Drug.
Saw our first of many Buffalo in the Badlands. We were planning to camp in
the Badlands, but ended up traveling on to the Black Forest and had a great
campsite on a beautiful lake.

We got a little too close to this one. He was rolling on the ground...we later learned that is a sign of agression. |

We went on a hike and kindof stumbled across this buffalo. Fortunately it was down a hill so we were pretty safe |
