I was very disappointed when we left our hotel room, as we could only see a few city blocks due to the fog. This was the last morning of our trip so this was the only time we could go see the Badlands. Once we got to the badlands the fog lifted some to reveal another world!

We enjoyed the Solitude, especially when it is raining! We saw only two other people out.

I noticed this lonely little green bush in this vast barren landscape. It seemed like it was the only life we saw while hiking in the mud and rocks.
