39 Rock Mounds and Brute Formations at Badlands Loop Byway, South Dakota

Millions of years of animal, climate and geological evolution are on dramatic display in the Badlands of South Dakota. The rocks tell the stories. There are spires, craters, pinnacles, buttes, canyons and mounds painted with bands of reds, oranges, grays, whites, yellows and purple. This fossil rich, 244,000 acres delights the senses at every turn. This incredible landscape is home to roaming bison, deer, coyotes and herds of pronghorns. They are similar to antelopes. Wow, what a spectacular view Mother Nature has created.
