Pick up the trail of America's
greatest legends in North Dakota, and you'll find yourself
in a legendary adventure of your own. Lewis and Clark, Sakakawea,
George Custer, Sitting Bull and Theodore Roosevelt lived
out larger-than-life adventures here. Whether you follow
in their footsteps and rediscover the past or blaze your
own trail and discover what makes North Dakota legendary
today, you'll find wide-open spaces and wide-open fun! Source:

One hundred miles of new singletrack has recently been
completed by the US Forest Service in Medora, North Dakota.
It's called the Maah Daah Hey Trail and it connects the
northern and southern units of Theodore Roosevelt National
Park. Part of the Missouri River Plateau, the Badlands of
North Dakota were formed by thousands of small streams working
their way through hundreds of feet of sediment over millions
of years. The trail takes us across the grasslands on top
of the mesas and then dips and dives in and out of the canyons.
Because we've been guiding this trail since its creation
we've been able to watch the trail evolve from a rugged
new route to a well worn singletrack, thanks to thousands
of knobby tires.
Singletrack experience is necessary to have out there,
in addition to an
adventurous attitude and a willingness to explore new territory.
