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?
