🛣️Stan and Rhonda take another adventure in Custer State Park. They decided to take the iconic Needles Highway known for its super narrow tunnels, incredible hikes along the way, and not to mention the famous Needles Eye rock formation. Their first stop is to hike the Cathedral Spires Trail through the magnificent spires of the Black Hills. At the end of the road they come across a medallion and meet Karen who is partaking in the Custer State Park Trail Challenge! They continue on the Needles highway and go through the Needles Tunnel. They Needles Tunnel is known for trapping unsuspecting travelers in their large vehicles. Stan and Rhonda stop at the Needles Eye and see the amazing display of God’s natural beauty throughout Custer State Park. They take in the beautiful sites and views and continue up the road to Sylvan Lake. Once at Sylvan Lake, they decide to pump up the inflatable kayak and get on the lake. Stan and Rhonda were the only ones on the lake as a fast approaching thunder storm cuts their time on the lake a little short. They finish their day with a much deserved dinner at the Blue Bell Lodge. Come with Stan and Rhonda as they continue in their adventures in their best season yet, Into The Wild.

That brings back memories of last September. We stayed at Sylvan lake campground ⛺️. Thanks From Wisconsin
Loved this video – lots of fun – but I would be stressing about that tunnel! Great job creating this. One of these days I hope we run into you on the road – we have the same Trailer I think!
When I was a kid, we lived in North Dakota. We’d go down to South Dakota to warm up!
Love the video! Jeff and I said the same thing loks beautiful you want to live there only thing is the cold 🥶 but it would sure make qgreat place for summer home❤ Thanks for sharing
We went through the tunnels in our f350 dually!
We loved our day at Custer. The needles highway was so much fun, and Becky’s car fit through the tunnel nicely. The lake was so crowded we couldn’t even find a parking space. That gives us a reason to go back next year, and Becky has promised me a new Jeep for graduation. That should be a lot of fun next year. Great adventure guys. Butch and Becky 😀😀
Nice that you got a chance to take the kayak out, and what a pretty lake that was! Sometimes that happens to us where we seemingly take as much time to inflate/deflate our kayak(s) than we actually spend on the water with them. When we went camping last week though, we inflated our kayaks the first day and used them about 4 separate times while we were there.
Wow, very nice. Stan you row like a outboard. I bet you could water ski behind the boat. That area looks like my next years trip.
Just so you feel better they drive a tour bus in some of those tunnels glad you got drive the needles hwy
I love SD. Visited for the first time 2 years ago and want to go again. Hiked both Cathedrals and Sylvan Lake, so beautiful plus drove all the highways.
You two are such a hoot to watch. Really enjoy watching!
You two are like kids with twenty bucks each in a candy store on this trip. Sure are enjoying your videos.
I love your SD video series. Thank you for another great video 🙂
I have never been to SD. The 50 below doesn't sound inviting, though. Loved the video, however. Thank you so much for sharing your adventure there. Blessings
Are the clearances on the Needles hwy sign accurate? Our truck is little over 7ft in height. Love your videos.
Beautiful park. Love the Needles Highway. Molly does a great job hiking with you two. The lake was pretty.
We will be in the custer area in a couple weeks, looks great! We just finished theodore roosevelt national park in ND and just arrived at Glacier. Great video as always, thank you!
A beautiful video. We visited Mt. Rushmore, Keystone and Rapid City in 2016 but never made it to Custer. We had a blast, nonetheless. Thanks for sharing your adventure. We would love to revisit the Black Hills. Don't know if we will be able to do it this year but next year is always possible.
Y'all take care and drive safe! God bless y'all!
Bob and Dottie
Another great video! That Needles road was quite breath-taking in a hold-your-breath kind of way! I never knew South Dakota had so much fantastic scenery!
