BCA filled the Burning Coal Vein Campground at our Southern Badlands Outing on June 24 and 25, 2017.

Keeping All the Pieces: Learning from Each Other

Aug 18, 2016

Thanks to the diverse crowd that joined us in Bismarck at Keeping All the Pieces last evening. Your willingness to share your experiences and opinions in public dialogue encourages us all to continue the good work of public education on oil and gas impacts in the Badlands and advocacy for their protection.

Take heart; fight the good fight. Raise your own Voice for Wild North Dakota. Watch for opportunities to join the Keeping All the Pieces conversation in communities across the state.

BCA Accomplishments for 2015

Dec 1, 2015

Trying something new, BCA held our 2014 Annual Meeting in central ND to even out driving demands. It seemed to work - with our largest ever annual gathering held in the main room of Makoché Recording Studio in downtown Bismarck. Thanks to Mike and David for providing a delightful space complete with BCA visuals and to Lynn, Graham, Mike, Robert and David for the extra help with logistics. It was a cozy and exuberant crowd with no one throwing a better potluck than BCA.

My Spring Vacation

My Spring Vacation

Apr 1, 2015

Giving credit where credit is due, my brother is probably the key to my Badlands bent. He is the one who taught his little sister the wonders of the great outdoors — from my propensity to note and investigate wee details to my exuberance for the derring-do. I was the timid one; he, the bold. He stretched me. Husband David and I took this now longtime Coloradan and BCA member to the northern Badlands over Easter weekend — with some reservation on both his part and ours. Larry hadn’t seen the Bakken Boom.

Christine Hogan is the new BCA president-elect and took over the gavel at the January Board Retreat. Although a transplant from Colorado, she has always considered North Dakota her home and actually chose North Dakota! Her family moved to Minot Air Force Base to follow her father’s Air Force assignment in 1966. When her family moved again three years later, she was in college at NDSU and stayed behind to finish college eventually going on to UND where she completed a law degree.

Growing up in Dickinson, North Dakota allowed me the opportunity to explore just about every butte and ravine in the Badlands. From hunting, hiking, mountain biking, and rock climbing - yes, it is possible to rock climb on Sentinel Butte - each part of the Badlands offered something different for me to enjoy. For five summers during college, I worked on the Maah Daah Hey trail crew for the US Forest Service. While on the trail crew, I was able to build new trail, maintain existing trail, construct campgrounds, and fight wild land forest fires. It also gave me an appreciation for the Badlands’ rugged environment and all that offers. Although I currently reside in Fargo where I am a Business Development Analyst for InterceptEFT, I spend as much time as I can in the Badlands.
