Nikon D3x Bread Sticks | Badlands Rocks The Badlands’ rock formations are distinguished by their vibrant red, tan, and white stripes. Each stripe represents a different layer of sediment brought there by rivers and seas, millions of years ago. Over time, the mud and grit hardened into layered sedimentary rock. After sedimentary rock formed, the White, Bad, and Cheyenne rivers carved the flat floodplain into sloping hills, jagged cliff faces, and precarious spires. For more information and images, see The Badlands | a 7 Image Story.
The Back Story Stop along the main road in Badlands NP, climb a small hill, and make simple click after focusing the PC-E lens. Note: I post an image everyday at hankconrad.com.
