Shortly after we crossed the border into South Dakota we drove through some road and bridge construction zones with pretty rough driving on loose dirt. Then through the tight twisty turns of the beautiful town of Hot Springs with historic buildings on its main street that were built with locally made red bricks. Then through Wind Cave National park, or rather above Wind Cave. And finally at the end of the day we arrived at Custer State Park. Months ago we had made reservations at the Game Lodge Campground from which we could make day trips throughout the Black Hills region.
After making camp and getting a good nights sleep we woke the next morning to find a herd of Bison just over a split rail fence adjacent to the campgrounds restrooms. Based on what the rangers were saying this was a fairly small group compared to the herd that roams the park but to us this was really impressive and super close to our campsite.
