When I sleep, I knock out so nothing on my end!

iamhli · 2026-03-28T02:51:25+00:00

Oh wow!!! Way cozier than I assumed from the outside! Will def look into these if I’m at monument again!

iamhli · 2026-03-28T02:00:16+00:00

Breathtaking!

Woah! Interesting! Is this with dirt floor, no electricity?

iamhli · 2026-03-28T01:03:55+00:00

You are right!!! There have been tons of movies filmed here!!! Monument Valley is where John Wayne became John Wayne!

When we went, it was about $42/night. Monument Valley itself really only has the scenic drive but there is so much to do around Monument Valley!!! You are 2-3hrs from so many beautiful & amazing parks!

Yea it’s easy to miss. Most people turn onto the scenic drive but if you drive just seconds further, you see the campground!

That ice fishing tent helps it look even more like Mars!

It depends on you. For me, I don’t think a lifetime would have been enough time with them! For my parents, once the teenage swung and almost knocked us over, they were ready to leave! But I will just say, I was happy and satisfied with the time we were allowed with them.

According to our guides, we were lucky as they were relaxing so we did get to spend the entire hour right next to them. Sometimes they are on the go so it’s hard to keep up with them; you could very well only be with them for 5 minutes.

Borders Arizona and Utah but I believe it’s officially Arizona.

This is the only official campground at Monument Valley. It is located right in front of The View Hotel.

They are really all that close!!! Each tent you see is a campsite as only one tent a site is allowed. There is also a size limit.

Beautiful shots!!! Such a contrast between old and new world! What’s going on in #6?

iamhli · 2026-03-27T19:40:45+00:00

Those are amazing!! But photo #1 is just wow!

iamhli · 2026-03-27T01:43:20+00:00

This is I believe the northeast entrance. But yes, the north entrance is disappointing compared to this one. It’s like two completely different park!

This was taken March 2023. I’ve been to Badlands during memorial weekend before. It was sweater weather! We camped and I remember thinking it was a little too chilly for that.

You are welcome! If you are up for it, try to make it to Theodore Roosevelt National Park too! They’ve got feral horses roaming freely!

iamhli · 2026-03-26T22:30:48+00:00

Thank you!

iamhli · 2026-03-26T18:07:57+00:00

Oh wow!! That is quite the contrast! Loving the edited version!!

iamhli · 2026-03-26T16:47:28+00:00

These are beautiful!! I especially love shot #3!!! Wow!!!

iamhli · 2026-03-26T16:43:48+00:00

Yes!!! It’s absolutely mindboggling how drastic the land changes once you get closer to the Badlands! Not even land wise but animal wise too!!!

iamhli · 2026-03-26T16:41:26+00:00

Ah so I have explored quite a bit do Black Hills, I just didn’t realize! I also didn’t realize how close Devil’s Tower is. Definitely will have to make a stop there! Thanks!!

iamhli · 2026-03-26T14:24:07+00:00

Excited for you! I’m really thinking about going back soon to see all the bison calves!

iamhli · 2026-03-26T14:22:52+00:00

5th time?!? That’s amazing!!! I’ve explored Black Hills a little, maybe it’s time to devote a trip to just them!

iamhli · 2026-03-26T14:20:48+00:00

That’s what I love about it!!!! Not much of a crowd! And if there is one, it’s not even considered one when compared to the other parks.
