Teddy Roosevelt Roundup

Day 16, June 2, 2025

Miles: 3,011

We had a glorious long week in and around Theodore Roosevelt National Park. I’m a bit of a TR fan so going to the place that meant so much to him was meaningful to me too. We hiked, biked, camped and admired the spectacular scenery all around. Below are some highlights that didn’t make it into previous posts.

View from the Little Missouri Campground in the North Unit TRNP. Stayed here 2 nights.

TR’s Maltese Cross cabin in Theodore Roosevelt National Park, ND
Cannonball Concretions formed by uh, you look it up.
Dewy in the morning, dry all day
David taking off on his solo bike ride
Coyote prowling below prairie dog town
Prairie Dog town with pillow. I ‘borrowed this pillow from J-P and Anne back in New York. Now I send them updates of its travels.
Volunteer for the Theodore Roosevelt History Foundation at the North Unit Visitor Center is named August. I sent his pic to Auggie since he believes he might be the only one named August.
Bison visited our campsite. We were not Turons. We walked away until the bison was finished his dewy green breakfast .
Goodbye, TR!
Did not take the option to sleep in a Conestoga wagon
