A couple of friends and I are taking a month long trip through south dakota to Wyoming and Montana. Does anyone have any hot spots that we must hit up?
--Thanks

If you're taking I-90, stop here in Spearfish for some limestone sport climbing. Let me know when you're coming and I'll show you around (I haven't seen much of it yet, just moved here, but I do have the guide).

Hey Man,
I did the same trip from the Adirondack across to Wyoming back in 2000. I would skip everything until you hit the Corn Palace in SD. Then stop in at Wall Drug and get your picture taken on the big dinosaur. I would then spend a bunch of time in the Needles of the Black Hills, if it is not June hit up Devil's Tower, and then move on to the Tetons. This could easily take up a month. My trip was about 2.5 and I wasn't satisfied at the end of it.
Golod luck.

in order: the needles, black hills, devils tower, thermopolus (for the hot springs), the sinks, cirque of the towers, the tetons. Ask others about MT.
oh yeah - no climbing on Devils tower in June, but then June will be early for the cirque of the towers and the Tetons. Wait till July.

The southern Black Hills (Rushmore, Custer) and Devils Tower are great, don't miss them.
Edit: Changed month as I miss typed.
