Left for Mount Rushmore this morning, did the president's walk to get a close view and ended up taking about 50 photos of the mountain at different angles. Impressive, but not much to do there. Checked out the town of Keystone nearby, (where we had delicious Subway pizza!) , then drove the winding road to Custer State Park. There we did the "wildlife" loop, saw some Buffalo, burros, and deer. Mostly outside of the wildlife loop :). The drove Needles highway, which was very curvy, but had great scenery throughout. Ended the drive off at Sylvan Lake, where we walked around the lake before heading to Deadwood. Made a brief stop for a wine tasting on the way. Strolled through Deadwood, which seemed to be a big gambling town, before settling in Spearfish for the night at Bell's Motor Lodge.
