104

This is the 3rd attempt !!!!! We are in Wall SD after a few great days in the Black Hills at Custer, enjoying the Monuments of Crazy Horse and Mount Rushmore. The scenery and roads are spectacular and the 35 MPH speed limit allows you to fully enjoy all there is to see. The 5,000 + motorcycles in the immediate Custer area are less than 1% of the bikes in Sturgis but still a sight hard to comprehend. The several tunnels carved out of solid granite are amazing and VERY narrow. We didn't retract our truck mirrors and managed to lightly scrape one on a tunnel wall. We are in Wall which is famous for handing out ice water during the western migration in the depression....people would stop or couldn't afford water so Walls gave it away as a ploy to get people to stop. Today it is really just a large ( 76,000 sft) store. At 2:00 this afternoon, it was 104F and the same is forecast for tomorrow.
