Saw this adorable calf (along with hundreds of oth Saw this adorable calf (along with hundreds of other bison) on the Custer State Park Buffalo Jeep tour.  We opted for a sunrise tour and would highly recommend it! 
Having seen bison before at Yellowstone and Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve I didn’t expect to be wowed from this experience, but we all thought it was amazing.  Our tour guide shared so many fascinating facts about the wildlife and was able to take the Jeep off roads to parts of the park not normally accessible by vehicle.

Badlands is known for its other worldly appearance Badlands is known for its other worldly appearance.  Aside from the beautiful red, white, and pink striated rocks that are so prominent in the park there are also these striking Yellow Mounds.  Found slightly south of the Pinnacles entrance, these golden hills are easy to access from the “Yellow Mounds Overlook” parking lot.  I could not believe that no one else was in the area when we visited!  This was one of the sights I was most looking forward to at the park and it did not disappoint.

We love visiting new places, but we also enjoy exp We love visiting new places, but we also enjoy exploring our own backyard.  This weekend we checked out the Christkindlmarkt in Carmel, Indiana.  This holiday bazaar features traditional German foods, music, and a marketplace of German goods. The atmosphere of craft stalls, outdoor ice skating rink, and thousands of Christmas lights is absolutely magical.  This is the second year Carmel has hosted this amazing event and our second year attending.  It’s definitely become a new family tradition.

Notch Trail at Badlands National Park is one of th Notch Trail at Badlands National Park is one of the most exciting trails we’ve hiked.  Between the ladder and the cliff edges we were both enamored and terrified with this challenging trail.  It was such an interactive trail and we felt so accomplished at the end.  Have you ever hiked Notch Trail and what did you think about it?
