We left Mt. Rushmore and went north to Devil's Tower. The KOA there could not have been any closer. We followed the 3 mile road to the visitor's center and saw mule deer and a whole town of prarie dogs. They were running and playing and "barking". There were hundreds of them on both sides of the road near the entrance to the park. While in the park, we learned the legend of Devil's Tower, seven Indian maidens were chased to the top of the tower by a bear and the marks on the side were made by the bear's claws. We then followed the rest of the scenic loop and saw the Vore Buffalo Jump, a sinkhole where the Indians drove the buffalo over the jump for food and skins. We also drove through Sundance, Wy. and were disappointed.
