I was speaking of the badlands in S.W. North Dakota stretching east. But the Sandilands sounds perhaps better and possibly a good rallying point. The badlands is nothing but spotty forest and very steep hills and deep valleys, hard to get through unless you really have your heart set on it (off the beaten path that is) lots of caves (mountain lion and cat caves mostly) but with the ammo we're carrying they wouldn't be too much of a problem.
