Finally, some relief (topographic, that is)








Today I finished crossing the flatlands of South Dakota. The weather was overcast most of the day with occasional downpours, but the rain lifted when I came to the Badlands. The outcrops make a remarkable illustration of Steno's Laws. However, I left without accomplishing my goal of finding the sign.


Devil's Tower was very impressive, but the rains returned with a vengeance and it looks like Buffalo will wash away before tonight.
Tomorrow I am on the road to Yellowstone. It's good to be back in the Rockies!

Sounds like you're having fun in Yellowstone. I can't believe it's still snowing. I finally figured out how to post a comment. Hopefully you will see this.
