Spending a week in the Black Hills of South Dakota during Fall has been on my bucket list for quite some time. This year I was able to make it happen. I spent a lot of time in the northern hills in and around Spearfish Canyon. I also spent a couple days roaming Custer State Park. Here are some of the photos from the week featuring fall colors. If you are interested more specifically in my Spearfish Canyon and/or Custer State Park photos, then check out my state park page over at South Dakota Magazine's website: http://southdakotamagazine.com/stateparks. CSP's photos and column will be the grand finale to the series and the plan is to have it posted on Monday, October 15th. Click on an image for a larger file to view and thanks for stopping by!
