Medicine Root Trail GPX Track

I need to offset my substantial website costs somehow! You can download a hike/drive GPX to assist you here. Before sharing my GPX tracks with others, please remember my site is otherwise a free resource.

This loop in Badlands National Park passes many gorgeous badlands formations through sandy prairies and desert. Starting on the Medicine Root Trail, complete the loop by heading back on the Castle Trail. I saw tons of prairie dogs as well as big-horned sheep, and the vast spectrum of yellow and brown hues keep the landscape really interesting.
