I was a long haul truck driver for nearly 30 years and the only part of the park I got to see is the rest area over look along I 94 and it was beautiful especially the fall of the year all the autumn leaf's changing color... What's amazing it's a little oasis of beauty in North Dakota where everything that surrounds the park pretty much looks the same dull...Until you get closer to Fargo where the state gets greener with sunflower fields.... Thanks for showing me what the rest of the park looks like both parts.....

I have been photographing TRNP since about 2014, in all three units. The Elkhorn Unit is well off the beaten path but, unlike some of the Google Map reviews, 4-wheel-drive is NOT necessary unless you somehow get off the road when it is wet. There is a small, basic campground on the road leading to the Elkhorn Ranch Trailhead and the trail itself is almost completely level, leading to the ranch's former homestead beside the Little Missouri River. The scoria-based roads in this region can and do become slick when muddy, so pay attention to weather. Cell phone coverage will be limited or non-existent in many areas, as well. Access to the western side of the South Unit is best gained via the Petrified Forest Loop Trail (or one can use the ford at the Peaceful Valley Ranch to cross the river). One can find a plethora of fossilized wood, including complete tree stumps, anywhere in the badlands but this trail has a section that has an above average number on display. Just be aware that a very long stretch of the road access to this western access is crossing private property (don't wander off road, in other words). The scoria (the red "gravel") used on the dirt roads in this region is extremely abrasive, so keep this in mind when it comes to eyeglasses and camera lenses. Blow and rinse first before doing any wiping or you will get scratches (windshields and roll-down windows become scratched here after only a few years, so imagine what that will do to your eyeglasses). The South Unit is also home to large herds of both elk and feral horses, neither of which is found in the North Unit (even though there are handfuls of elk in the Watford City area). The bands of horses are the subject of a lot of hot debate (to remove or not... They were contained within the south unit during the initial fencing when the park was established). The North Unit is home to small herds of bighorn sheep (I've watched and photographed at least two different herds in one day at either end of the unit, in fact). There is a small "demonstration" herd of longhorn cattle (all steers, therefore unable to increase in numbers) in the North Unit. The biggest dangers in the park are probably the bison (they are NOT cows and are far more agile, fast AND potentially aggressive/unpredictable) and slips and falls from high elevations. If there have been recent rains, the surface may be a dry crust with mud beneath, for it is mostly sedimentary in nature and it is common for the bluffs to sluff off. There are also prairie rattlesnakes during the warmer months throughout the badlands, plus a limited cougar population (be careful hiking at dawn/dusk). Carry plenty of water, enjoy with care and please leave no trace that you visited (the graffiti at the cannonball concretions is some of the worst and is disrespectful to every other visitor). By the way, as of April 2024, the South Unit's scenic loop drive is still closed near the southwest end due to the loss of road to erosion and is an out-and-back trip. The Riverbend Overlook parking area in the North Unit is completely closed since last autumn due to rebuilding the parking area but now that spring is finally arriving, work should likely resume soon. Hope this helps out any potential visitors. :)

Hello! This park gets pretty hot and dry and sunny in the summer, so a hat would be helpful! You may want hiking boots with nice traction if you plan to go on trails with a slope/exposed rock. If you don't have the best balance, hiking poles may be handy too. Sunscreen and water are always great to have as well! Have a wonderful time in TRNP!
