Here is a view of Mt Rushmore not often seen. We were en route to the Wind Cave when we saw this. Pictures of the Wind Cave didn't turn out so hot so we'll show you some stuff we saw on the way.









This is a view from the Needles Highway in Custar State Park. The mountain formations are the needles. Notice the similarities of these formations to Mt Rushmore.

More Needles Highway... no motorhomes here. That passage is only 9' wide

These are fossils of Mammoths found in Hot Springs, SD. One of the most important archeological sites created when generations of mammoths fell into a sink hole and were covered as the sinkhole silted in.








More fossils.
Tomorrow, we are off to Buffalo, Wyoming for a 3 day stay. Rapid City was very exciting. There is much to do and see here; more than we expected. The weather was good except for two thunderstorms with pea sized hail.
