The Black Hills are in the mountains, so it will be cooler than down by Hot Springs. the Badlands are a bit lower in elevation so it can get hot during the day and cold at night. Ive been there in July and August. Never had an issue with heat, that's not to say a heatwave wont hit when you plan to go!
