South Dakota in September
Hi there,
I am looking for advice and suggestions for a trip I am taking in early September. I usually travel alone, so I travel pretty quickly with few rest stops.
I am flying into Denver around noon on Day 1. Staying in Boulder and looking for suggestions for that afternoon. I like being outside, scenic driving, hiking.
Day 2 - Rocky Mtn National Park (I was there in October, but never actually got to see it since the first snowstorm of the year started)
Day 3 - Drive to Rapid City, SD with a stop at the Mammoth site or Wild Horse Sanctuary.
Day 4 - Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Jewel Cave
Day 5 - Badlands, Reptile Gardens
Day 6 - Wind Cave, Custer State Park, Minuteman Missle
Day 7 - Bear Country, Black Hills Scenic Driving
Day 8 - Back to Denver with a stop to Devils Tower (although I may move this to Day 3 depending on feedback on the Mammoth site and Wild Horse Sanctuary)
Anyone stop at Chimney Rock or Scotts Bluff in NE on the way back to Denver?
Thanks!
