As you drive or hike through western North Dakota, the gently rolling hills open up dramatically into the varied and colorful layers of the badlands. This is the same landscape that Theodore Roosevelt traveled to in 1883 to hunt bison and later spent time on his ranch. Today, a visit to Theodore Roosevelt National Park lets you explore the rugged badlands, prairies and forests that Roosevelt once called home. Photo by Yang Lu (www.sharetheexperience.org).
