| Day's Summary: Theodore Roosevelt: South and North Units. Overnight: CCC Campground. |

While Painted Canyon is indeed part of the South Unit, it's somewhat separate (at least by car) from the main Medora entrance. It's roughly 6-7 miles east of Medora (I-94) and pretty much owns its own freeway exit. Definitely scenic and worth a stop, as you can tell here.
