Badlands Earth Day Hike!
Badlands Conservation Alliance is hosting an outing to western North Dakota on Saturday, April 27th, 2024 to celebrate Earth Day. We’ll hike 5.5 miles of the Maah Daah Hey Trail in the Little Missouri National Grassland. BCA Executive Director Shannon Straight will be guiding the hike and providing background on the conservation initiatives in the area.
Members and non-members are encouraged to join us for the hike, so please bring a friend! The event is free and open to the public, and there is no fee required to hike on this section of the Little Missouri National Grassland.
We’ll meet at Chimney Park in Medora, ND at 9:00 AM MDT on April 27th, and we’ll leave Chimney Park together at 9:15 AM MDT to drive to the trailhead. At the conclusion of the hike, Dakota Cyclery will provide a shuttle from Coal Creek to return participants back to their vehicles. The hike from Plumely Draw to Coal Creek is moderately strenuous and will last three to four hours.
Hikers must bring their own food, water, sunscreen, first-aid supplies, and other gear. Hiking shoes or boots are required. Be prepared to find no potable water on the trail this early in the season. Dogs are allowed on the portion of the Maah Daah Hey Trail the group will be hiking. Dogs must be on a leash in developed areas, including the trailheads for Coal Creek and Plumely Draw. Please be aware that this trail is shared with horses. This is a section of non-motorized US Forest Service land.
Please RSVP on Facebook or by contacting Shannon Straight.
