We entered Custer State Park from Iron Mountain Road.  Within minutes there was more pasture land and wildlife.

Coming around a curve we encountered oncoming traffic and it was not on four wheels.  We pulled over leaving the buffalo room to come on either side of the car.  What a show being surrounded on both sides.

Notice how these last two guys are in step with each other.  The left front leg of the one next to the car really isn’t white.  That is a reflection of the car windows which we had raised for safety.

What an incredible experience.  It seemed like it took from a half hour to 45 minutes.  However, the time recorded on the pictures indicate that it was about 10 minutes.  Wee then proceeded towards the gate where they collected a $20 fee from us.  It was worth every penny of that.

Less than a mile later we encountered this guy on the road all alone.

A few miles later we pulled into a picnic area and enjoyed our lunch.  Then we moved on to the visitor center.  From there we continued westward several miles and exited the park bound for the Crazy Horse Memorial.
