This is a narrated tour of the Badlands and Prairie areas. We drive out through South Dakota ranch country toward the Badlands National Park. We stop at the Minuteman II Missile silo to see a Missiles that was in South Dakota for 30 years. Then we stop at the Prairie Homestead Sod House Historical Site where you will see how the early Homesteaders lived. Next, we enter the Badlands NP with a stop in the park at the Ben Reifel Visitor Center for about 45 minutes. There are restrooms, a great video about the plants, animals and formations, and displays about the plants, animals, fossils, and early history of the Badlands. We drive the 30 mile loop road to Wall, SD with several stops at scenic overlooks and boardwalks for pictures and views of the dramatic landscapes of layered rock formations, steep canyons, towering spires, and mixed grass prairies. We usually see the prairie dogs, and sometimes see the Big Horn Sheep and some buffalo. This drive takes about 1 hour or more.
