In between our reservations at Yellowstone and Glacier National Park, we made a three-week loop through the Dakotas. Our first stop was Wall, SD outside Badlands National Park. We’d already spent a couple months hiking and exploring deserts through the southwestern states, and our kids seemed a little weary of hot sandy trails and blazing […]
A Weekend in Great Falls, Montana, and Giant Springs State Park
We had a weekend layover in Great Falls, Montana, making our way from North Dakota to Glacier National Park. We didn’t expect much from the stop, and so we were pleased to find a pleasant state park, Giant Springs State Park, stretching several miles along the banks of the Missouri River. Much of the park […]
Spectacular Hiking in Glacier National Park, Montana
I am completely blown away by Glacier National Park. It is my favorite park to date, and the park to which I am most certain I will return for more extensive backpacking. The glaciers are bit underwhelming compared to the ones I’ve seen in Alaska, but the snow capped mountains, glacier blue lakes, countless waterfalls […]
Mt. Rushmore: Four Presidents on a Hill in South Dakota
While camped in Wall, South Dakota, we made the two hour drive to visit Mt. Rushmore on a day trip. Not a whole lot to say about Mt. Rushmore. It’s four presidents on a hill in South Dakota. We arrived about nine o’clock and were back on the road by noon, having walked the short […]
Photos from Arches National Park
We visited Arches while camped in Moab, UT, which is just outside the Arches NP gate and also provides easy access to Canyonlands National Park and Dead Horse Point State Park. We had a lot of anticipation for Arches National Park. Of all of the national parks in Utah, I believe it to be the […]
Tour Lewis & Clark Caverns State Park, outside Bozeman, Montana
While staying a few days in Bozeman, Montana, we decided to visit Lewis & Clark Caverns State Park. The caverns are an easy hour out of Bozeman, and they were pretty cool to explore. The cave had steep curling rock stairs that we scrambled down and up as we moved from one cave room to […]
Medora, North Dakota…It’s Medorable (with Video)
Cowboy and cowgirl training. #Medora #medorathemusical A video posted by DailyJane&Wilson (@katiezkelley) on Jul 1, 2016 at 10:20am PDT I dreaded going to North Dakota, but I was flat out floored by the charm of Medora, ND, which is at the entrance to Roosevelt National Park. While we were in Medora, Jane and I had […]
Stunning Vistas at Dead Horse Point State Park, Moab, Utah
Dead Horse Point State Park is just outside of Moab, Utah. The state park is adjacent to Canyonlands National Park and pretty close to Arches National Park, so if you are making a trip to Moab or through Utah’s Big 5, then Dead Horse Point is worth a day trip. Dead Horse Point seems to […]
Fossil Find in Badlands National Park
The Badlands were HOT! The sun seemed directly overhead for four hours of the day, so even if we got up and out early, you only get a little time without sweltering heat. Mark suggested one morning we venture off the trail a bit to look for fossils in the creek wash. I thought he […]
An Underrated National Park: Capitol Reef, Utah
Capitol Reef National Park is the often-neglected member of Utah’s Big 5 The Big 5 are the five national parks stretching across Utah, including Zion, Bryce Canyon, Canyonlands, Arches, and Capitol Reef. It’s really common for RVers to visit these five parks over a few weeks in a loop, leaving Las Vegas in a rented […]
