BELLE FOURCHE—Just outside Belle Fourche, a special destination filled with curiosity and wonder invites visitors to explore animals that went extinct millions of years ago. What began as a dream for owner Walter Stein became reality when he opened Dinosaurs of the Hell Creek Museum one year ago, ...

Need to add “Belle Fourche”! Geographical Center of the Nation, Rodeo Cowtown and Gateway to T. Rex Country. Cheers!

Welcome to South Dakota 🦬🌾💨

SIOUX FALLS: Bigger than expected. Still windy.
RAPID CITY: Gateway to mountains, motorcycles, and weather mood swings. ⛰️
WALL: You’ve seen the signs for 300 miles already. 😭
STURGIS: Quiet little town… except for THAT one week. 🏍️💀
CUSTER: Buffalo traffic jams are real. They do not care about your schedule. 🦬
PIERRE: State capital energy so calm you almost miss it entirely.
DEADWOOD: Wild West history and surprisingly strong drinks. 🤠🍻
NEXT SERVICES 84 MILES: Hope you planned ahead. ⛽😭

Meanwhile every South Dakota local is out here:
• driving through snow sideways 🌨️
• treating 40 mph winds like “a little breeze” 💀
• and casually spotting weather changes from three counties away 🌪️

And somehow?
It still feels peaceful.

Open prairie.
Massive skies.
Roads that disappear into the horizon forever. 🌅🌾

Until a buffalo walks into traffic like he owns the state. 😭🦬

WELCOME TO SOUTH DAKOTA —
where the Black Hills look unreal, the sunsets are enormous, and every road trip eventually becomes:
“Wait… are we STILL in South Dakota?” 🚗💨😂

Field Season is upon us and the tours are about to start. Here is a little reminder on a few things:

1) If you have a tour scheduled within the next 30 days and only paid the minimum non-refundable deposit, please follow the link to your reservation and finish paying for the trip asap. Balance is due 30 days prior to your trip.

2) I have changed emails since December. We are phasing out our old [email protected] email due to piles of SPAM and switching over to our new email at [email protected] if you have not made that change in your contacts please do so asap. I missed a couple emails in the old files and spam folder this month.

3) There are still spots open for this summer, if you can make it.

ITS GOING TO BE A GREAT YEAR FOR DIGGING!

Do you know what would be the perfect gift on Mother’s Day? Why this 3-D printed “Shannon’s Mosasaur” skull! Loui is nearly finished building the first prototype. Great job Loui!

Happy Mother’s Day!
