It's June and woods were wet after overnight rains, so opted for the 4.3km trail runner special, allowing me to push somewhat harder/faster than a mostly woods encounter. Added some bonus trail mileage between 3-4 & 6-7 to get me closer to an hour effort. Overshot #5 by 30-40m and had to come back along ridge to get it. Then missed #7 by getting a little right/low and coming to larger rocky reentrant and having to climb back to the boulders.
19 weeks consecutive now.

No sites at either Dunewood (at the NP) or Indiana Dunes SP nearby. iOverlander indicated that overnight parking was allowed behind the Indiana Dunes visitors center, so that's where we headed. Got there right about Dim - well lit lot with a couple porta-potties and no one else in sight. A bit of nearby road noise and a few trains, but we've gotten accustomed to dealing with that. Overall all a nice spot to pop the top and sleep. $0
10 AM

Note

Stopped at Sweetwater in Fort Wayne since the road went right by - bathroom break and stretch the legs while oggling all the nice toys. Very cool place as they carry pretty much all the gear and all the keyboards are set up and running so you can demo - big expensive workstations, basic synths, monsters like the Moog One and a few modular setups. Spent about 45 minutes here before hopping back on the road.
2 PM

Hiking (Ledges Trail) 1:04:41 [1] 3.32 km (19:30 / km) +75m 17:32 / km
ahr:72 max:95 shoes: RocliteG 290v2 2020

Ledges trail at Cuyahoga Valley NP. Cool trail. Clear, low 80s
9 PM

Note

After visiting Cuyahoga Valley we waffled between staying at Silver Springs CG about 15 minutes away (I had stayed here both coming and going to California last year - nice county park) or driving on some distance to reduce the final push tomorrow. Opted for the latter - drove an hour or so, grabbed dinner at Panera near Akron, then another couple hours into Pennsylvania a ways to SB Elliott SP a short ways off the interstate - got there as the dim was setting in again, found a spot, paid up and went to bed. Getting pretty good at the routine by now. $21

Spent last night at Rock Creek SP in Kellogg, IA - $14. Rolled in just after the dim, so didn't see much of the park. But they had showers - first in six days, much appreciated. And out again at first light headed for Chicago.
10 AM

Hiking 1:20:00 [3]
shoes: RocliteG 290v2 2020

Headed downtown to take Anna to the Field Museum. Spent about 6 hours in the museum, saw maybe 1/3 of the non-premium exhibits - half of those in depth, half in cursory cruise mode due to crowded galleries, or youth groups. Spent more time in the galleries where we could wander more slowly. Very nice place.

Then walked around the museum campus area, then downtown to find some dinner and back to the museum campus area, down to the waterfront and then back to the parking garage under soldiers field where we had left the beast. Then a fairly painless escape from the city headed east. Headed toward Indiana Dunes to see about camping availability and get a short walk in near the beach.
7 PM

Hiking 43:07 [1] 2.07 km (20:53 / km) +27m 19:36 / km
ahr:80 max:107

Indiana Dunes.. Dianas Loop trail - up into the forested dunes, probably 70% boardwalked trail with a surprising amount of climb. Dropped us out on the beach which was still quite crowded even near sunset.

Spent the night at gorgeous boondocking site in Buffalo Gap NG on West rim of Badlands NP. Probably 100+ rigs spread out over a mile or two of bluff on west side of park. Pretty sweet.

Hiking (Badlands NP) 1:00:00 [1]

A couple short loop hikes and overlook jaunt as we tooka leisurely drive through the park entoute to the interstate.

Couldn't even get close to our intended camping spot outside Yellowstone yesterday, and subsequent attempts to find anywhere to camp even 100mi east were thwarted by road closures and lots of wasted backtracking mileage. Finally came to rest at Cabelas in Billings MT $0. Mostly big rigs with generators running all night plus highway noise. Not so restful. Parked behind a Sprinter that I'm pretty certain was with us in Lubrecht. Texas plates and the same motion detector light on the backend..
8 PM

Note

Long driving day, part interstate, then scenic Byways down through Black Hills NF, Jewel Cave NM, Wind Cave NP, Custer SP, BIA lands to Badlands NP South Unit (closed), dirt roads to Badlands NP north unit and park loop. CGs full up, circled back to Wall for dinner, then a nearby Buffalo Gap boondocking site just before sunset. So not as far east as nearly twelve hours behind wheel might infer.

Walking 45:00 [1]
shoes: RocliteG 290v2 2020

Stretch breaks, scenic overlooks, after dinner walk at Buffalo Gap.

Up through Beaverhead/Deerlodge NF, through Anaconda and into Bozeman and stopped at Museum of Rockies for about 5 hours. Nice place, but got quite busy as day progressed. Went to a Thai place downtown where we learned about the Yellowstone flooding evacuations. We had planned to camp near Gardiner and slip through the north part of Yellowstone at daybreak and drive up through Beartooth/Absaroka mountains. All areas closed and under emergency evacuation orders. There go those plans.
Dallied about downtown visiting art galleries and such for a few hours before heading east around 5pm. A couple 30mi dogleg as we encountered more road closures east of Yellowstone while trying to access camping options. Frustratingly pointless driving miles...
8 PM

Walking 1:00:00 [1]

Cumulative guess, misc easy walking...
