Itinerary description

It's a haul. But it's well worth it. Quite a hidden gem. I felt like I was walking through the Serengeti. Boulders aplenty. I carried pepper spray in my pockets as I'd had awful dreams of mountain lion attacks the night prior to the hike. I think I came across some people target shooting with a silenced weapon. Gorgeous massive sweeping hillsides. Huge ravines. The mountain wants to turn into a pine forest at the top. Just not quite tall enough to really take off. Unique view of many SD peaks.
