Montana Nature
Description
To the Lakota, Ma-ko-shi-ka meant bad earth or bad land. Today, at 11,531 acres, Makoshika is Montana’s largest state park, and the pine and juniper studded badland formations house the fossil remains of such dinosaurs as Tyrannosaurus rex and Triceratops. You’ll find a visitor center at the park entrance with exhibits explaining the site’s geologic, fossil, and prehistoric stories. Roads and hiking trails let you explore the park’s whimsical badlands landscape. Or try out the campground and the park’s folf (frisbee golf) course.
