Theodore Roosevelt National Park ND
Lat, Long: 47.17777274, -103.4300083
Designation: National Park
When Theodore Roosevelt came to Dakota Territory to hunt bison in 1883, he was a skinny, young, spectacled dude from New York. He could not have imagined how his adventure in this remote and unfamiliar place would forever alter the course of the nation. The rugged landscape and strenuous life that TR experienced here would help shape a conservation policy that we still benefit from today.
Weather:
In winter, some or all park roads may be closed due to snow.
Directions:
Theodore Roosevelt National Park is located in the Badlands of western North Dakota. There are three units to the park.
