On Rocky Peaks at the Badlands National Park

August 29, 2013  •  Leave a Comment

The Badlands, with their rocky peaks and spires, dry barren landscape and gorgeous colors, literally scared the crap out of me.   From the ground looking up, they are simply beautiful.  But as we got higher and were on the top looking down I discovered a fear of heights that is really quite profound.  My son, on the other hand, loved it.  He loves to climb and scared me with every turn.  If I ever go back, I will bring shoes with more grip and try to enjoy the climbing and view with him.  Here are some of my photos from the Badlands National Park, at least those I was brave enough to take.
