Custer State Park Introduction
The Traveling Morgans
have a favorite place to go with our dogs. Custer State Park is one of the largest
state parks in the country (71000 acres) with incredible wildlife.

Their are serious mountains in Custer State ParkThe Needles
section includes Harney Peak, the highest peak (7242 feet) east of the Rocky Mountains.
Mt Coolidge offers wondeful views of the area.
Sylvan Lake is a wonderful Alpine Lake which is seen
in the movie
Custer State Park is the most dog friendly park we have seen.
You can even have your dog off leash in some areas, provided nobody else is around.
We also think it is one of the best run parks of any type in the country.
Black Hills
The stunning scenery of the Black Hills is not easy to describe. It is easy to understand the Lakota Sioux believing the Black Hills to be where men first descended from the stars -- the Pleides cluster to be specific.
The Black Hills is known for human attempts to create stunning scenery. Most people consider these attempts to be quite successful.
The impact on the mind of three tunnels framing Mt. Rushmore (left) when traveling Iron Mtn Road .is generally disbelief.
The largest complteded sculpture in the United States is here, Mt Rushmore.
Mt. Rushmore is already dwarfed by the Crazy Horse Monument (right). All of Mt. Rushore would fit in the forehead of Crazy Horse.
