Yes, spending 4 days in Spearfish then 3 days in Custer. I went on a family trip to devil’s tower when I was a little older than my oldest now and remember it being amazing.

Be sure to take them to the fish hatchery in Spearfish.
Cool spot, short time.
Just huge fish and cool history.

Fun fact, I was the best man in a wedding in the back yard of the “main house” there once years ago.


Spearfish Canyon is awesome.
Little gun range on the L as you head up. Its rumored Chad Dixon uses it from time to time…

Needles highway is a must.
the short walk around Sylvan lake is pretty cool. I still remember my first trip around it right before I turned 5. 😎

Also be sure to check out the High Plains WesternHeritage Center/Museum https://www.westernheritagecenter.com/ It’s built on part of the Inlaw’s ranch and the Deadwood Stage brought Great Grandma from the railhead in Wyoming (it is on display). A lot of interesting things to do there.

Maybe instead of talking you should be a big boy and practice your fucking parking

But now, the motivations. I’m gonna be in this region for a week of camping pretty soon. Can’t wait

If I didn't live where I do now, I would be out there or North

Beautiful country

And the people are great.

They did have a real bad hail storm go through Morrill county a couple days ago .
 
How old are the kids?

Mine were 7-8 year olds.

We visited the Bear Country safari and they really enjoyed it.
6, 4, 2 so we can’t get too crazy. My wife is the main vacation researcher/planner and I’m in charge of the logistics of getting us there but I’ll run this by her
Devil's Tower?.........
Yep

I’ll have to see if these will fit in to the wife’s itinerary but thank you for the suggestions

We found out some friends of ours are moving to the Custer area in a few months so we may be checking out the housing market while we’re there. We’ve been loosely talking about getting away from Denver for a bit. I think I have my fingers crossed a little harder than my wife, I’m pretty over working downtown and really want to get back to the country

Custer is great.
Push harder to go….
I want out too, but be 7 more years….. 😔

Ice Cream at the Purple Pie Palace in Custer.
Darn good stuff 😉

For boys the age of yours, the hatchery is a cool 30-60 min stop.
They have machines to buy food and watch a bunch of fat 30” trout go crazy!
Neat history, and 100% a stop for kids under 10.
Bet she has planned it. Its a thing in Spearfish

Since you might park at Sylvan lake, just do the full hike up to Harney Peak. It's been renamed Black Elk Peak and it's the highest point east of the Rockies, at 7282'. The hike is 3 miles up and 3 return.

If you can't make it to the Spearfish hatchery, there's also one in Rapid City on the west end of town at Canyon Lake.
