Badlands National Park and Wall Drug Tour

Welcome to Badlands National Park. You will see some of the most spectacular breathtaking scenery in the region and our state. Deep canyons, towering spires, and flat-topped tables can all be found among Badlands buttes. Yet, despite their complex appearance, they are largely a result of two basic geologic processes: deposition and erosion. The serrated Badlands terrain did not begin eroding until about camera along. The recently remodeled Ben Reifel Visitor Center is a must see along with the award winning video.

Custer State Park and wildlife loopSome wildlife Custer State Park is one of the largest and most beautiful state parks in the nation. From towering granite spires and pine-draped mountains to trout streams and remote savanna, the park offers scenic wonders and recreational opportunities seldom matched on the Northern Great Plains.

First established as a state forest in 1912, today the park is home to one of the largest bison herds in the country, as well as other rare flora and fauna. Prior to settlement, the Black Hills were Lakota territory. After gold was discovered along French Creek in 1874, the government waged war on the Lakota, forcing them onto reservations, and settlers rushed to the region.

Northern Hills and Deadwood Tour - $80pp (Minimum 2 passengers)

WaterfallsScientists tell us that Spearfish Canyon was formed 30 to 60 million years ago. Originally, a great sea covered this area. When the waters started to subside, the canyon was carved out by water eroding away the softer rock. DeadwoodThe land was also pushed up from underneath by volcanic action. After many years, the water carved out the channel we have come to call "Spearfish Canyon".

Spearfish Canyon is full of Ponderosa and Spruce Pine trees, giving it a "full of life" feeling no matter what time of year you visit. The pine trees are adept at finding any little crevice or crack and putting down roots. Some of them look as if they are growing right out of the rocks themselves! The banks of Spearfish Creek support Aspen, Birch and Oak trees (among others), which are primarily responsible for the golden yellow fall colors the Spearfish Canyon is so famous for. In the fall time, some of the mountains get bands and rifts of yellow just like the miners find gold in the rich gold veins of the Black Hills rocks.

Imagine an entire city on the National Historic Register.  What you'll see in Deadwood today is a careful, accurate restoration of a historically significant city.  Deadwood's extensive Victorian architecture is unique to the West.  While the gold rush of 1876 brought the likes of Wild Bill Hickok and Calamity Jane, it also provided the wealth to construct a thriving commercial center in the heart of the Black Hills of South Dakota.

Morning Tour departs at 7.45am to 8am and returns by 12.00pm
Afternoon Tour departs at 12.45pm to 1pm and returns by 5.00pm
