- Driving past the Badlands during the foggy sunrise.
little camera phone working its hardest here |
- Double-takes at most corners in downtown Rapid City due to the "City of Presidents" sculptures.
Hello, John Adams. |
-Hiding from a giant thunderstorm, complete with pebble-sized hail, in Deadwood.
IT'S COMING. |
- Some wild west history above Deadwood.
- Sunset run on the Mickelson Trail.
I saw a very small piece of it... it's 109 miles long! |
-That night I got really lost on gravel roads without cell service and ended up a mile from Wyoming.
My handwritten directions said to follow Rochford Rd. south. Come on. Clearly this was intended to mess with tourists. |
- Miles and miles of gorgeous roads to ride on.
And just look at those rocks! |

- Roadside geology stops.
folding in the Minnekahta limestone near Hot Springs |
- Cave tour at Wind Cave National Park
It was hard to pry me out of there. I took the Natural Entrance Tour, but I'll have to go back some day to take the others- particularly the Wild Cave Tour (the only actual public caving tour). |
- Shamelessly touristy stops.
Wall Drug. Enough said. |
