On Edelweiss Mountain... You are in the midst of one of North America's most ancient forests, the Paha Sapa (Black Hills), where Giant Ponderosa Pines tower into the air. Carved by wind, rain, and time, the granite peaks, and majestic mountains plunge into cavernous depths of gorges and canyons with secrets untold for a hundred generations. The only sounds you hear are the songs of the birds and
your own breathing being carried on the wind as the giant pines sigh in the mountain breeze. This "Paha Sapa" is just 2 miles from beautiful Lake Pactola, 4 miles from Sheridan Lake and 25 minutes from Rapid City, SD. Futher South is Mount Rushmore, Custer State Park, Crazy Horse and many more attractions only 25-30 miles away. The attractions and explorations are endless.
