Black Hills & Mount Rushmore

With Black Hills all around us, and since we had to wait until our RV get fixed we had done some sightseeing and took a few pictures from around Rapid City.

The caverns we visited are located in The Black Hills, which are a small, isolated mountain range rising from the Great Plains of North America in western South Dakota and extending into Wyoming, USA.Set off from the main body of theRocky Mountains, the region is somewhat of a geological anomaly. The region is considered sacred by many of the Plains Native Americans. It is accurately described as an "island of trees in a sea of grass. It is a home to the tallest peaks between the Rocky Mountains and theAlpsin Europe.
