With its natural beauty and mystic nuances, it is no wonder the Lakota Indians
found the Black Hills to be such a spiritual place. The Black Hills Region covers
a large area in the western part of South
Dakota and has many state parks and wonders of nature. Wildlife roam freely
at Custer
State Park, one of the largest parks in South Dakota and home to a large bison
population. Rapid City is
the main center in the area, and each year the city hosts the Black
Hills Pow Wow, a cultural event that showcases traditional American Indian
dancing. Located southeast of Rapid City, Badlands
National Park has amazing rock formations, scenic nature trails and ranger-led
programs. The world-famous Mount
Rushmore in Keystone honors
the legacy of American Presidents Washington, Jefferson, Roosevelt and Lincoln.
In the town of Deadwood,
a genuine remnant of the Wild West, visitors can see Calamity Jane's grave site
and the saloon where Wild Bill Hickok was shot in the back while playing poker.
