TRNP is a great relief after the Black Hills. It is a wonderful place to decompress and relax after fighting through the traffic and hordes of people and noise of the Black Hills area.
In the Black Hills (and Custer State Park) we couldn't turn around without stepping on someone - it is like the Smoky Mountains during leaf peeping season. At Teddy Roosevelt, we nearly had the campgrounds and the roads to ourselves. Well, if you don't include the horses and buffalo. It was so nice we stayed longer there than the Black Hills.
