Bighorns, not just another roadside attraction
In most places, traffic jams are a pain in the neck. But in Rapid City lately, the traffic-stoppers have been bighorn sheep on Jackson Boulevard near the Cleghorn Springs Fish Hatchery.
And nobody seems to mind yielding the right-of-way to these impressive animals.
We’re back!
After a too-long recess from the blogosphere, we have relaunched, revived, repositioned and rejiggered the Black Hills Travel Blog. You’ll start seeing regular posts on all the cool things that make the Black Hills of South Dakota one of the coolest places on the planet.
A trip to the top of Inyan Kara
Inyan Kara is a Black Hills mountain that few people have seen up close. The main reason is that the mountain in the northwest corner of the Black Hills is surrounded by private land. You need to get landowner permission to climb it.
However, it is a worthwhile hike.
Give McCain a breakI think we should give John McCain a break. During his appearance this week at the Buffalo Chip Campground east of Sturgis, he jokingly told the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally crowd that that his wife, Cindy McCain, should compete in the Miss Buffalo Chip Pageant. "I told her that, with a little luck, she could be the first woman ever to serve as both the First Lady and Miss Buffalo Chip," he said. The crowd laughed. It was funny. That was about it.
The rumble of the Sturgis Rally Deadwood, like much of the Black Hills, is hopping this week. There are bikers everywhere, it seems. At 5 p.m. on Monday, a line of stopped or slow-moving motorcycles stretched from downtown Deadwood all the way to the U.S. Highway 385 turnoff south of town. And traffic on 385 was busy all the way to the Sugar Shack.
