SD – Black Hills \/ Custer State Park | Day 3<\/a> | Day 4<\/a> | Day 5<\/a> | Day 6 <\/a>| Day 7<\/a><\/p>\n

Day 5\u00a0–\u00a0the day of mist, rain and dense fog before the expected 6″ of snow fall and subsequent 27 degree morning temp. \u00a0We wisely decided to move to a camper cabin\u00a0before the unseasonably cold and snowy weather moved in. \u00a0It was a bit damp and breaking down the tent was not on my to do list at this point. \u00a0The cabin was a short distance from our tent site; relocating camp was easily accomplished. \u00a0We left the tent up in hopes that mist\/rain would subside and breeze would dry things out and headed for Wind Cave National Monument<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Hidden beneath the rolling prairie of the southern Black Hills is one of the world\u2019s longest caves. \u00a0Swaying prairie grasses, forested hillsides, and an array of wildlife such as bison, elk, and prairie dogs welcome visitors to one of our country\u2019s oldest national parks and one of its few remaining intact prairies. Secreted beneath is one of the world\u2019s longest caves, Wind Cave. Named for barometric winds at its entrance, this complex labyrinth of passages contains a unique formation \u2013 boxwork<\/a>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

There are a few different cave tours to choose from, we went on the Natural Entrance<\/a> tour. \u00a0It was a lot of stairs, but they are mostly all down. \u00a0The elevator that takes you back to the surface is lower in the shaft than the level you entered the cave on. \u00a0Here are some iPhone shots on the monument grounds and inside the cave. \u00a0Great tour.<\/p>\n

It was still very foggy and misting some when we left Wind Cave. \u00a0Once back at the campground it was time to take advantage of the break in the mist\/rain. \u00a0Packing away a wet tent is never any good. \u00a0The rain fly was a bit damp, but that is all; it would dry quickly in the cabin.<\/p>\n

The day was still young and there was much of the Custer State Park<\/a> to explore. \u00a0We drove up to Mt. Coolidge Fire Tower<\/a> in a blanket of fog. \u00a0There were breaks at times that offered somewhat of a view. \u00a0At 6023 ft. I am sure the view is dandy on a clear day. \u00a0From there we explored North Lame Johnny Road (CSP4) as we made our\u00a0way toward the donkeys down by the Buffalo Corrals. \u00a0We were a bit disappointed to find no donkeys around especially since we were toting two large bags of carrots. \u00a0Perhaps they were driven away by yesterdays stampede. \u00a0We headed South on Red Valley Road (CSP6) into Wind Cave National Park<\/a> where we spotted some Elk at a great distance. \u00a0We would have liked to get a bit closer, but that opportunity never arose. \u00a0We made a big loop South in Wind Cave Nation Park and came back around North and headed for Custer. \u00a0The light was getting low and our stomachs where empty. \u00a0[[Custer State Park Map<\/a> for reference]]<\/p>\n

Here are a few shots from Lame Johnny and Red Valley roads. \u00a0Beautiful country and a bit of wildlife as well. \u00a0Another great day in the hills.<\/p>\n
