@francinityshiniya As in The Badlands National Park or South Dakota?

[sxasher2]

South Dakota is beautiful and I feel like I'm part of the video! Thank you so very much for sharing with us! Hugs and woofs from your friend Harley Dog :-)

Amazing!!! We are planning on going here for the first time from the midwest next June....Any recommendations on how to plan our day here? Is there lodging close by? We will be on our way to yellowstone but would like to take the time to stop by here as well.

Thanks for sharing!!!

@rolmos213 From what I recall there isn't any lodging real close to the Badlands entrance we went into. Where we came out of the Badlands there is a city called Wall where the famous Wall Drug is and I know there are some places to stay there. So you would have to drive past it first to stay at Wall unless you stayed more east of Badlands. There are so many places to stop in Badlands I'm sure you could spend nearly a day just seeing everything and its very windy most of the time. Enjoy!

@MoviesMusicNature I went to Mt.Rushmore, the Crazy Horse memorial, the Badlands, and Wall a few weeks after you did. I took lots of pictures. It was windy and I was there the whole day as well.

@rolmos213 Rapid City, SD is the closest major town to there. It's probably abou 40 miles or so up highway 44 northwest out of the Badlands. I believe there is a KOA campground very close to the entrance to Badlands National Park.

Chris, this is beautiful! The drive in the beginning of all the mountains is gorgeous. And what a cool thing to see a goat in the wild! Amazing video and so beautiful!

[MoviesMusicNature]

@Cheerio753 Thanks Ryan, It's an amazing place that you just stand there and wonder how in the world it got this way. So many years in the making and to see all the layers of colors and the formations....... It is one of those places I'm just amazed seeing. Thanks for your visit!

[Grandpa2one]

This was so relaxing.....Awesome!!!! Great camera work and the music....WOW

[MoviesMusicNature]

@Grandpa2one Thank You very much! I'm glad you enjoyed, it is a wonderful place to experience.

[MoviesMusicNature]

@TheBirdNerd10 Thank You! Quite the Spectacle it is :-) I loved it there and how vast it was all around you.

[GoldfinchGarden]

WOW! That really is spectacular scenary and beautifully filmed too.

[MoviesMusicNature]

@GoldfinchGarden Thank You! It's a spectacular site for sure.. Amazing to think how long this took in the making to look this beautiful! Appreciate you stopping by..

[KJ4TUG]

That's some amazing footage!! You just put it on my list of places to visit. The land and sky really put on a show for your visit. Just gorgeous. The music was perfect. Really peaceful to watch ... but, at any moment, I was expecting to see some smoke signals on the horizon. (-; Again, amazing video.

[MoviesMusicNature]

@KJ4TUG Thank You! :-) I'm glad you enjoyed. It is a fantastic place to visit and I would recommend it to anyone. While you see it here on video you just can't get the feel of it as it is in person. To see how many miles this place covers and how vast everything is is just breathtaking. I would love to go back here someday and spend more time there and maybe stop at a few more places. There are many places to stop and look around, we may have stopped at half of them?

[NaturesFairy]

Hi Chris, It is a pleasure to see a lovely capture from you. It seems such a spectacular place. The jagged rock outcrops and the landscape is astonishing. It really has such breathtaking views and makes you wonder how small we are when we look at these marvels of nature which have exisited for millions of years. Great stuff Chris and thanks for sharing and wish you a blessed week ahead..

[MoviesMusicNature]

@lmmsl Hi Menu... I couldn't of said it any better than you. It is amazing to see what the earth offers us and how long things have been around in the making to see such beauty from them in our lives. The more I see makes me want to get out there and travel even more. It was nice to see your comments :-) Thanks for stopping by...

[kookiemoose]

Wow, what a spectacle. Looks like a wonderful place to explore. I honestly have nothing to use as a previous reference for this place. Would I love to spend a few days right there. Very, very interesting.

[MoviesMusicNature]

@kookiemoose It is indeed a beautiful place in many ways and the formations are wonderful to look at. It would be very interesting to spend some time there hiking around also and they don't seem to care where you walk. People were walking all around these formations to my surprise. I know it is a place you would love to explore for sure.. Thanks for stopping by..

[my35Xvision]

That is awesome made video, Chris! I love it. My God, our Land is so beautiful! I was in Grand Canyon twice on different sides and it always made me excited so much. I have to visit all our National parks and your video is very inspirational in this regard. This is my Favorite and I will watch it more times. Thank you Chris for sharing this wonderland with us from your eyes view and its excellent view!

[MoviesMusicNature]

@my35Xvision Thank You! :-) Your so very right in how beautiful our land is.... I have yet to make it to the Grand Canyon but do look very forward to it someday.. I appreciate your visit and comment.

[seahue]

Beautiful video chris! North and south Dakota are the ONLY states I haven't visited and I was happy with that UNTIL I saw your vid! Wow! Who would have thought the 'badlands' could be so 'good':D Now I HAVE to visit!!! I love the contrast between the greens and browns....Amazing shapes...Thanks for sharing:D

[MoviesMusicNature]

@seahue Awe Man, just wait until you see a few more of my videos from South Dakota David. You will want to go even more so! The Badlands were amazing and to think how that was formed over all those years is just crazy! The colors and layers is another story to think about? Thanks for coming by, glad you enjoyed :-)

[uncledave10]

That was a very nice look at one of the places I would like to see before I pass Chris , All I have ever seen of this country and out is the shoreline , Refineries , Shipyards . I need to see the square states like Arizona , Thank you my friend :o)

[MoviesMusicNature]

@uncledave10 It is very unique here Dave and its just miles and miles of this in every direction. I think you would love it out west seeing our national parks. This was my first trip out west and I do want to go back or further west and those plans may be in the works for next year. More to come from South Dakota :-) Thanks for your comment.
