On my way into Rapid City, I stopped for a quick look at Devil’s Tower (1), which is certainly a sight to see. But got in on the first night to Leah and her family, who took me out to see Mt. Rushmore (2). Leah’s dad tried to take a few proportion shots of us that weren’t working out as well as we would have liked compositionally, but we had a ball anyways. Saw George by looking through a rock (3) and a billy goat enjoying the sights and grass (4).
We climbed Harney Peak (5) and soaked in the view over lunch and a cliff.
Tried to go through a 8.5 by 24 in cement block testing ability to go though a spelunking cave. You can see by the veins in my hand (6) I was trying really hard to get unstuck. We did go on a lantern tour of a cave however (7), which greatly amused my inner child.
We drove through Custer State Park (8) and saw some buffalo (ie driving through two herds) and had a little run-in with a young bull. Entered and left by way of the Needles Highway (9). Unfortunately, I didn’t get to see Iron Mountain, but I’ll just save that for next time.
And from there, I took off from SD and headed north to Bismark and North Dakota’s plains.
