Custer State Park!

Posted on by Giselle & Bill

We spent a few days in Custer State Park in South Dakota. It was an awesome combination of wildlife viewing and striking rock formations.

Our tent (that speck of gray/yellow in the trees) had a great view of Center Lake!
Prairie dogs are so fun to watch, but blurry in photos. (Sorry!)
So many bison! (See video below)
Pronghorns!
A sparrow (?) nest above the women’s room door
Needles from a distance
Some needles up closer
Bill examining the needles
Entrance to the Needle’s Eye Tunnel (gulp!)
Tight fit!
A small wildfire started (not by us!) and this helicopter doused it with water!
Giselle modeling her new sunglasses in Hot Springs, SD!
Drone video of bison (from a safe height, no bison were annoyed)
Flight over the needles
Obligatory ice cream stop at Wall Drug!

Next up: Badlands National Park!
