Here's a double-header for you today! We were up well before sunrise and spent most of the day touring through Badlands NP with fog early and high overcast throughout the remaining day. The first picture was taken near Cedar Pass off Highway 240. It was about 6:40 AM and the sun was unsuccessfully trying to make it through a thick fog layer. I liked how the craggy peaks of the badlands faded away in the fog. The second picture was taken during a spur-of-the-moment excursion late in the day to the Buffalo Gap National Grassland (BGNG), which lies just south of the Badlands North Unit. BGNG is an area where the endangered Black-Footed Ferret was reintroduced. Although we didn't see any ferrets, we did see huge fields of wildflowers with multicolored buttes and hills in nearly every direction. Tomorrow, we head to Devils Tower.
