Jewel Cave National Monument

Fri 25 - Custer

It was nice to leisurely wake up and enjoy coffee, pancakes and bacon around a morning fire while reading maps, and other information about the area. There's lots of tourist attractions in the area, with Mt. Rushmore being the biggest draw. The unanimous vote was to avoid getting in the car today. The first campground of the trip was very comfortable, so we were all happy just hanging around.
The fact that WiFi was available at the camp site influenced the decision slightly. After lunch we made a move. Solo and I drove the guys to Jewel Cave Nat'l Monument, about ten miles away. They toured the caves while I went shopping. Back to camp, we showered and started dinner prep. We made chicken, ribs, baked potatoes and corn on the camp fire. Everything was great. After a few toasted marshmallows, we took to our tents and called it a lazy day.
