Badlands National Park in South Dakota is dotted with many view areas. Some of these areas (like the Burns Basin Overlook) are prefect not only sunrise, but also sunset and that time just before sunrise and just after sunset, known as the "blue hour," when the sky and landscape are bathed with blue, pink, and purple. You might also see a full moon and perhaps even the atmospheric phenomenon known as the "belt of Venus."
