Terry RV Oasis

Local town Terry is also famed for its museum and gallery dedicated to Prairie photographer Evelyn Cameron, who captured the spectacular scenery of the area and the life of the town in busier times. Also worth a visit is the town's Historic Kempton Hotel, incorporating a bookstore and antiques shop in carefully preserved early 1900s décor: ghosts are here too, if you're tired of hunting deer... The Terry Badlands three miles' drive away is a pristine wilderness, where striking rock formations share the big sky with rolling hills, elk, deer and horned lizards. It's a must for photographers, the light playing on the banded rock formations to make a different picture every minute. Equally close to Terry RV Oasis is the Yellowstone River, full of fish and a favoured site for rock hunters in search of the rare moss agate. Further afield, two hours' drive east takes you across state lines and into the Theodore Roosevelt National Park (the wilderness-loving president came out to this part of North Dakota in 1883 to hunt bison). Thanks to Theo, the herds still roam there, while the park's combination of wet woodlands and warm hillsides sustains life of all kinds from wild horses to golden eagles and tiny flycatchers. Drive two hours west, meanwhile, and you'll be at the Little Bighorn Battlefield, an evocative spot commemorating Lt. Col. Custer's Last Stand. Many travellers continue west towards Red Lodge, joining the Beartooth Highway into the Yellowstone National Park.
