The last day of Custer, was Sunday so we attended a church service in the park done by A Christian Ministry in National Parks, it was a lovely service. After we drove through the needles and in some places we barely fit through the tunnels but we made it. We stopped once to let them (Dad, Garrett, and Nathan) climb on some rocks after awhile we thought they had all died, they were gone so long. Then we drove to Sylvan Lake and hiked 3.5 miles up to Harney Peak which is the tallest point east of the Rocky Mountains. When we made it up the view was amazing and wonderful, but we were all very hot, sweaty, and ready for some lake water. So we fast hiked it down and relaxed in the lake before leaving for the campsite.
The next morning we packed up and drove, to Badlands national Park when we arrives there it was 102 degrees, by the time we set up camp and drove back to the park it was 106 degrees outside, we were hot, but we still wanted to hike. So we just did a 1/4 mile hike up on side of a badland formation then hiked down the same side. we were very hot but had a lot of fun. After that hike we were done and headed back to our camp ground to swim and eat a yummy dinner.
I will post pictures later.
