Window Table

Published by woody on September 9th, 2009

This morning I packed up and headed to the lower unit of the Badlands. As promised, there were more badlands there. The Visitor Center lady had told me about a road that I can travel on Window Table if I have a high clearance vehicle so I wanted to try it.

The road was a few miles of normal dirt road up to a scenic overlook. Other cars had made it up there. But there was a path beyond that with a sign warning that it’s only for high clearance vehicles. So I headed that way.

This road stressed my Cherokee close to the limits of its 4WD capabilities. Half of the time my car was angled so much I thought I’d tip over. There were several 2-3 foot steps to go up or down. Spectacular views though. I finally stopped and turned around when I got to a step down that was too big to risk with no one else around.

On the way out I drove through a town called Scenic, population 12. Next stop was Rapid City, SD.
