Custer Park, located in southwest South Dakota, is home to
1500 free roaming bison. Elk, deer and
mountain goats round out the park’s population.
The park is famous for its scenic drives, Needles highway and the wildlife
loop. This day we shared Needles highway
with some of the Sturgis Rally motorcyclists.
They were well suited to the one-lane tunnels that had been chiseled through the rock. Cathedral Rocks were
aptly named, as was Eye of the Needle.
We were well rewarded on the wildlife loop. A very contented herd of bison grazed as
their fans took photos. They were eye to eye with the cyclists who yielded when
bison decided to cross the road.
