We spent the previous night at Custer National Forest Campground. There were very few campgrounds along this area of rolling hills and flat land. We had located this place on our map, but it was already very dark (no moonlight at all) when we arrived at the turnoff. We drove over five miles on dirt roads. There were not adequate signs, so we wondered if we would find the campground. Walking around the area this morning, we found this horse and other sandstone carvings. We also discovered there were a few other campers that we were unable to see in the dark.
There was a fairly deep canyon just next to our campsite.
Last night we knew the road was bad, but this morning it was confirmed. This picture doesn't do it justice. Many of the rutted areas were much worse!
It was a surprise to see large rock formations and hills scattered around the area.
The above picture was our first view of Theodore Rosevelt NP. It is taken from a rest area on the I94 near the park entrance.
