I write an Outdoor Recreation/Nature-themed blog at https://tranquiltrekker.com

I also ruminate on using Mindfulness and my love of Nature to help manage symptoms of anxiety and depression over on Substack at https://open.substack.com/pub/tranquiltrekker

Q6 Wind Cave NP in SD is known for the cave (obviously) but it’s got great hiking above ground too!

Q11 LOTS of sun and getting outside as much as possible. Hubs and I also do 10,000 IUs Vitamin D3 all winter long. With the low sun angle of the Northern Plains this is the only thing that keeps my SAD at bay—fortunately the Black Hills are very sunny! Tried antidepressants, side effects SUCKED!
