Prairie
Dog City. Meggie went crazy chasing these creatures which were
uncatchable as they could duck into their holes very quickly. |
 |
Prong
Horn Antelope were prolific in the park. |

Three
asses. |
 |
The
old Black Hills gold minors apparently let some donkeys into the wild. |
 |
It
was a beautifully green summer with plenty of grass for the 1,400
buffalo in the park. |
 |
The
buffalo herds sometimes caused traffic jams in the park as they can roam
anywhere they want. |
 |
The
rut was in full swing and this guy was a little testy. |
 |
The
motor cycle rally in Sturgis was just starting when we got there.
We had buffalo burgers with the bikers at this general store in the
park. The bikers were actually quite friendly and well mannered. |
 |
A
pair of Big Horn Sheep seen at close range. |
 |
The
needles in the northern part of the park. We had to go on a windy
road through
several tunnels to get here. |
 |
The
very picturesque Sylvan
Lake |
 |
A
nice spire in the Needles area. |
