Here's an excellent blog post from a gal who worked a season at Badlands Nat'l Park:

Interesting post, that was the year we last visited BNP, we arrived in late JUne and stayed thru the 4th of July in Scenic at the KOA. Which, and I am no KOA fan, was an excellent campground. We even watch the 4th fireworks in Scenic, which was put on by their volunteer Fire Dept, and it was a scene right out of the Keystone Kops. Very memorable, my oldest son had one firework hit the ground about 8 or 10 feet from him.
But yeah the park was green, a couple of weeks before they had record high temps IIRC, but it had cooled off to a more normal high in the upper 70's and lower 80's when we got there. So we had a great time.
