Oglala Lakota County, SD Land for Sale
Red Shirt, SD | 130.96 +/- ACRES
The Badlands Overlook property is a 130 acre piece lying on the western edge of the notorious South Dakota Badlands National Park. The park was initiated in 1922 and derived its name from the Lakota tribes translation of mako sica, which has the literal translation of “bad lands”, likely because the terrain proves difficult in travel and generally does not produce much for forage or wildlife. Though the bad lands are not highly productive, they have remained virtually untouched. Their rippling ridge tops, deep ridge cervices, and flat-topped plateaus leave an onlooker spell bound and create a habitat where only the strong survive. Come and enjoy western South Dakota where the wild things are and the freedom still rings true to those who live for the pursuit.
