It’s not uncommon to see temperatures in the wintertime get below -30 degrees (F) with wind chills below -40 degrees (F) while in the summer temperatures can get as hot as 100 degrees (F) with heat indexes of 110 degrees (F). While the extremities in temperatures can be pretty dramatic, nothing is more dramatic than the landscapes South Dakota has. This includes Badlands National Park in the western part of the state.
