Description

I got together with several high school friends in Deadwood, South Dakota, for a long weekend.  Rather than simply drinking and gambling the weekend away, I was able to convince John and Lee to go on a short hike with me this particular morning.  I remember it was somewhat windy, but we still had a great time catching up and sharing stories.  Bear Butte is a geological laccolith feature located near Sturgis, South Dakota, that was established as a State Park in 1961.
