Leslie & Jet, Steve of AVI Television Productions (filming for a German documentary), and Lakota friends leave Badlands rim camp towards Chief Big Foot Pass--a two-foot-wide precarious path with dangerous drops off on each side.

Big Foot Pass, Badlands, SD  Jet took a bit of walk talk quieting prior to the descent. He'd been rearing up impatiently on the rim eager to join up with the leaders.
