This is a really enjoyable trail just minutes from Rapid City. Scenic pine forest all along the trail and excellent views. I saw several big black buzzards roosting in a dead tree up towards the top. Amazing views at the top. This is a must do trail in the Rapid City area. There are many trails in this area so be sure to use the app or your Garmin to Navigate and not get lost. Most of the trail does NOT have any cell phone service so download the map/track ahead of time and a satellite device like Inreach or SPOT is recommended.
