Тур Mercedes со стеклянным верхом (Spearfish /Deadwood)

Обзор
Custer State Park in the one of the largest State Parks in the nation. Encompassing 71,000 acres in the Black Hills, it is home to abundant wildlife and adventures. There’s something here for everyone, the granite peaks, rolling plains and clear mountain waters are fantastic.

Open-Top-Tours is the only company to offer 6 hour Bison Jeep Tours to ALL of Custer State Park. (Not the 60 minute limited tour offered by others.) We tour in our unique modified Jeep Gladiators and Wrangers, with seating from 2 to 14 with great panoramic viewing.

Our guides are professional, well informed and a 'hoot' to tour with. They will explain local history, wildlife and answer your questions.

Tours include: fees, bottled water and snacks. And we include special treats to feed the "Beggin Burros" as we stop along the Loop. (They know us well and come running when they spot us.)

Tours depart Rapid City at 8:00am and Keystone at 8:30am. Lots of restroom stops and extra wildlife/landscape photo ops.

Moonshine Gulch Saloon
South Dakota has a reputation for its Wild West past, but has come a long way since the days of fast gun slingers, illegal gambling, and riding around town on horseback. Despite these advances, there are still a few nods to our “wild” past, including this old-time SD saloon. The western rock band - Big and Rich filmed their video "Big Time" here.
2
Bridal Veil Falls
Cascading approximately 60 feet, Bridal Veil Falls is the most accessible waterfall in the canyon. The Falls flows intensely in the spring and slows considerably in late summer and fall. it is located adjacent to a large parking lot to accommodate sightseers.
3
Spearfish Falls
Spearfish Falls is slightly off the beaten path, but well worth the walk. It is located in the heart of Spearfish Canyon near the Savoy area. The trail to the waterfall begins on the north side the Latchstring Inn restaurant and guides you to the bottom of the canyon where it takes you to the roaring waters of Spearfish Falls. Be sure to wear good shoes as the trail can be slippery at times.
4
Roughlock Falls State Nature Area
Its idyllic setting in a side canyon to Spearfish Canyon makes Roughlock Falls one of the Black Hills most beautiful areas and also one the area's most-photographed spots. Created by Little Spearfish Creek, the creek flows down a spectacular chasm, then tumbles off a 50-foot limestone ledge in a series of lacy cascades. A popular destination for decades, the newly-improved walkways offer easy access to this wonderland. It is also known as one of the few places in where one can view the American Dipper, a rare bird that can both walk and swim under the cool, flowing waters. There are shady picnic facilities and restrooms, along with trails, catwalks and amazingly designed viewing nodes. Here we stop for a picnic lunch (included with the tour).
5
Deadwood
Deadwood is a city in South Dakota known for its gold rush history. We will visit Mount Moriah Cemetery (graves of Wild Bill Hickok and Calamity Jane). After a brief tour of No. 10 Saloon and the downtown, guests will have time to self-tour Main Street and witness the 2:00pm Gunfight.

Nemo
An old mining and lumber town that lies along a serene back country road. We stop for a brief break at the old General Store.

Салон Самогонного ущелья
Южная Дакота известна своим прошлым Дикого Запада, но прошла долгий путь со времен быстрых стрелков, незаконных азартных игр и верховой езды по городу. Несмотря на эти достижения, есть еще несколько отсылок к нашему «дикому» прошлому, включая этот старинный седан SD. Западная рок-группа Big and Rich сняла здесь свой клип "Big Time".
32
Фата невесты падает
Водопад Bridal Veil Falls высотой около 60 футов является самым доступным водопадом в каньоне. Водопад интенсивно течет весной и значительно замедляется в конце лета и осенью. он расположен рядом с большой парковкой для размещения экскурсантов.
33
Водопад Спирфиш
Водопад Спирфиш находится немного в глуши, но прогулка того стоит. Он расположен в самом сердце каньона Спирфиш недалеко от района Савой. Тропа к водопаду начинается с северной стороны ресторана Latchstring Inn и ведет на дно каньона, где ведет к ревущим водам водопада Спирфиш. Обязательно наденьте хорошую обувь, так как тропа иногда может быть скользкой.
34
Природный заповедник штата Рафлок-Фолс
Его идиллическое расположение в боковом каньоне к каньону Спирфиш делает водопад Рафлок одним из самых красивых районов Блэк-Хиллз, а также одним из самых фотографируемых мест в этом районе. Ручей, созданный Little Spearfish Creek, течет по впечатляющей пропасти, а затем падает с 50-футового известнякового уступа серией кружевных каскадов. Популярное место на протяжении десятилетий, недавно улучшенные пешеходные дорожки обеспечивают легкий доступ к этой стране чудес. Он также известен как одно из немногих мест, где можно увидеть американскую оляпку, редкую птицу, которая может ходить и плавать под прохладной проточной водой. Есть тенистые места для пикника и туалеты, а также тропы, подиумы и удивительно спроектированные смотровые площадки. Здесь мы останавливаемся на обед-пикник (входит в стоимость тура).
35
Дедвуд
Дедвуд — город в Южной Дакоте, известный своей историей золотой лихорадки. Мы посетим кладбище Маунт Мориа (могилы Дикого Билла Хикока и Каламити Джейн). После краткой экскурсии по салуну № 10 и центру города у гостей будет время самостоятельно совершить поездку по главной улице и стать свидетелями перестрелки в 14:00.
36
Немо
Старый горнодобывающий и лесозаготовительный городок, расположенный вдоль безмятежной проселочной дороги. Мы останавливаемся на небольшой перерыв в старом универсальном магазине.

Custer State Park Visitor Center
First we stop at the State Game Lodge and detail its history at the Summer White House for Presidents Coolidge and Eisenhower. Then stopping at the Custer State Park Visitor Center we visit the many displays about the iconic species of the prairie, the bison. And one more stop along the Wildlife Loop Road at the Buffalo Corrals. The new Custer State Park Bison Center brings an all-bison experience to the park's scenic drive through the southern prairie of our 71,000 acre park.
38
Wildlife Loop Road
We tour through 18 miles of open grasslands and pine-speckled hills that much of Custer State Park's wildlife calls home. Keep eyes peeled for bison, pronghorn, whitetail and mule deer, elk, coyotes, burros, prairie dogs, eagles, hawks, and a variety of birds that are rarely found together in one location. A medley of colorful wildflowers and prairie grasses surround the road, making for a picturesque drive; and the landscape changes throughout your trip, keeping you on your toes.
39
Mount Coolidge Fire Lookout Tower
Built of local stone, Mt Coolidge Fire Tower rests atop a 6,023-foot peak on the way to Blue Bell Lodge and is still used today as a fire lookout and dispatch center. As the highest point in central Custer State Park, it offers breathtaking 360-degree views from the top of the fire tower. On a clear day, you can see the Badlands nearly 60 miles away in the east, Mt Rushmore and Crazy Horse to the north and the Wildlife Loop Road to the south.
40
Stockade Lake
Stockade Lake is the largest lake in Custer State Park and is located between Mt Coolidge Lookout and the Needles Highway. It has a very scenic and serene atmospher and here we pause for a picnic lunch.
41
Needle Eye Tunnel
The Needles Highway is a spectacular drive through pine and spruce forests, meadows surrounded by birch and aspen, and rugged granite mountains. The road’s name comes from the needlelike granite formations that seem to pierce the horizon along the highway. The roadway was carefully planned by former South Dakota Governor Peter Norbeck, who marked the entire course on foot and by horseback. Construction was completed in 1922. Needles Eye Tunnel is a unique rock formation, so named for the opening created by wind, rain, freezing, and thawing. It is the most popular tunnel in the Park.
42
Sylvan Lake
Sylvan Lake is the most popular of the may lakes in the Park. It was created in 1891 when Theodore Reder built a dam across Sunday Gulch Creek. It is surronded by large granite spires, huge pines and creates a unique alpine feel to the guests. I is also home to an average of 4 wedding a week during the summer season.
43
Iron Mountain Road
Iron Mountain Road is a unique road designed to showcase the Black Hills and Mt Rushmore. Known for its “pigtail” bridges. Iron Mountain Road redefined what a road could be with 314 CURVES, many one one-tunnels and of course the "pigtail" bridges.

I didn't get to go on this trip because your company didn't communicate with the people running the excursion. I had to get ahold of them and they took care of the situation. I will never use this site again 😒
