Are you going to visit Custer State Park while you’re in South Dakota? I imagine you will as it’s right above Wind Cave. We saw a HUGE herd of buffalo as we drove into the park. So cool. Be sure to hit Wall Drug as you are leaving the Badlands. What a hoot!
P.S. I assume you are going to hit Mt. Rushmore and Devil’s Tower National Monuments, too. They are not to miss sights as well.
We’re heading to all of those spots! We’ll be driving past Custer State Park on our way to Mt. Rushmore, and we’ll stop at Devils Tower before we get to South Dakota! I think Erin will need extra batteries for her camera! 🙂 Enjoy your week or your weekend!
