#11 MT RUSHMORE | IRON MOUNTAIN ROAD | NEEDLES HWY

We didn't have time to explore the Black Hills as much as we wanted.  Among other things, as presented in this video, "The Needles" are absolutely awesome.  (I think my camera is crying because it didn't get to photograph those stunning natural spires.)

Rapid City/Deadwood - South Dakota

This was my first visit to the Dakotas (my wife had vacationed with her parents when she was a teenager).  I hope to get back this way, soon and fill in some of the gaps.
