Woolly Mammoth

Custer to Hot Springs South Dakota 
We loaded up the bikes to drive to Custer to start riding on the trail around 730am. We didn't have far to go but wanted to beat the heat. We rode on the Mickelson Trail to Pringle then got on US385 to go east and south to Hot Springs. 




We stopped at Wind Cave National Park. We didn't take the time to go on a tour but we did go see the hole where the wind blows from.  It wasn't blowing much today, but it was cool air.

We got to Hot Springs around 1130am, got an early check in, showered and went to late lunch/ early dinner. 


After lunch we went to The Mammoth Site museum ( self guided tour ). It was very cool! 


33.5 miles
