We made that trip about twelve years ago and it immediately went on my "must visit again" list. Such a pretty area. When we go again I would love to stay in Custer State Park, I loved watching the bison and other wildlife. Mt Rushmore had so much more there than I knew it would -- I really enjoyed it. The Badlands were so unique, unfortunately it got to be 100 degrees so after a few hours I started melting and was an observer rather than being an active visitor! I was surprised they let people go anywhere in there, I remember the terrain being really crumbly when climbing around.
