Today we left the Hils but went to through the Wildlife Loop Rpad again. This time we were there shortly after 8 am, and headed East to West. Saw LOTS of deer but few buffalo. In the video attached below, the deer is trying to get some branches off his horns. The noise you hear is Daisy whining. Once again she didn't bark at bison--and as you can see, we saw one really close up! But the deer and burros got her full voice!
After leaving Custer State Park, we drove through Custer, a small town and seemingly a nice alternative to stay vs. Hill City or Keystone (which are closer to Mt Rushmore but SUCH tourist traps). We stopped by a couple of NPS (National Park Service) interpretive sites, and I learned more about the fire that ravaged these hills in 2000.
Then we went on to Wyoming. More on that later.

Those two in the ssecond picture sure look familiar. Hmmm....
