    As fulltimers we spend our summers in the Black Hills - two summers workamping in Custer and now two summers in Hermosa....LOVE the area. Custer State Park is simply amazing, so many areas to ride off road in and Coolidge Lookout should not be missed! Great day trips to either Badlands or Devil's Tower are also great....our country is simply beautiful....another great video!

    Nice windshield time once again! I too was surprised that Chief Crazy Horse was not further along when I went. It takes plenty of time I suppose. Always ready to go back to revisit Mount Rushmore. Such a pretty drive. Thanks Russ for the Virtual Vacation Tour 2020. 🌞🇺🇸🌅🚐🌟🌝

    When I was a Kid There used to Be A Flintstones Village outside of Custer....I it was open in 1966 and torn down in 2015..
    My family and I went the summer of 77. It was a real scale size of the Flintstones homes...it was so much fun..
    I was hoping you might stop at Jewel Caverns outside of Custer...or Stop at The Cosmos outside of Rapid city...

      Ann, got pics of my niece & nephew below the Big pink Dino out front across lot from gift shop in 2008. If you look on Google Maps you can still see the old town of Bedrock which is now part of the Buffalo Ridge Camp Resort and Dino's still there too! Sad to see it gone, but doubt kids nowadays even know who Fred, Wilma, Pebbles, Barney, Betty & Bam Bam are; not to forget Dino! Willllmaaaaa!!!!!! : )

    Big wave Russ from Colin and I. We enjoy your show so much. Thank you for the digital vacation. We have been down to Mount Rushmore and enjoyed that time so much. I got pneumonia from the air conditioning in the car as it was 105 degrees out at that time, and we were tenting. Boy did I get sick. A trip I won't soon forget. Yikes. What a beautiful area those Black hills are. We also went to Lead in South Dakota to see all the bikes. Wow! We look forward to seeing your videos about that trip. Thank you thank you so much for the great share and camera work. Nice Russ. Carolyn and Colin Hogarth Osoyoos B.C. Canada.

    Hi Russ, you missed 3 of the best parts of the southern hills. Pigtail bridge road (Hwy 16A) going north towards Rushmore, the Needles Hwy which goes to Beautiful Sylvan Lake and the Wildlife Loop Road in Custer State Park. Worth going back for, and Reptile Gardens outside Rapid City is cool too! Too cool for school for you! ; )

      Sculpture still looks the same as it did in 2013. I refused to pay the 20 bucks they wanted to just park in the lot so don't no anything about the museum. Had fun in Keystone,Mt Rushmore at night lit up and of course the Badlands. Wall Drugs strikes me as more of an indoor mall with a western theme.

It was dirt roads all the way to the fort and also Crazy Horse. You got to go into the house of the parent nothing there at that time.
