The normal tourist stop would be Medora, ND. It's along I-94 about 40 miles from the border with Montana. Medora is just west of Dickinson, ND. During the summer months Medora is a very busy place. They also have a musical playing nightly. Theodore Roosevelt National Park (South Unit) is near Medora. You can then travel up Hwy. 85 to see the north unit (this is the only National Park that is split up in different units.) But don't forget to travel up Hwy. 22 north of Killdeer to see the Little Missouri River. There are many campgrounds around and smaller towns with motels. If you're into mountain biking, the 95-mile Maah Daah Trail runs all the way through the badlands, connecting the north and south units of the park. This is the best way to see and appreciate the Badlands.

How did South Dakota get its shape?
There were many factors that went in to determining the shape of South Dakota. The original Dakota Territory, formed in 1861, was formed by the area that was leftover when Minnesota became a state. The 1861 Dakota Territory also included most of present-day Montana and Wyoming. As new territories were formed, land was split off and added to the Dakota Territory so that, in 1868, the final Dakota Territory was formed. In 1889, the Dakota Territory was again split and formed two states, North Dakota and South Dakota. In an attempt to make the states a similar size, the states of North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, and Kansas were all created by the US Congress to have approximately 3 degrees of latitude (about 207 miles in height). The Enabling Act of February 22, 1889 stated that the Dakota Territory "be divided on the line of the seventh standard parallel produced due west to the western boundary of said Territory" (45°50′N). Landforms were also a factor in forming South Dakota's border. The Missouri River forms a portion of the southeast corner of South Dakota. Lake Traverse, the Bois de Sioux River, and Big Stone Lake form a portion of South Dakota's eastern border with Minnesota.
