    I know I'm going to be echoing a lot of previous comments probably 🤔 but I have to say thank you guys for your videography of your journeys. I know my medical conditions would keep me at sea level and I wouldn't be able to do anything mountaineering 😞 & your Michigan videos made me home sick 😉 keep up the great work Cody on your videography and Kelly you're cooking is extraordinaire as usual I'm usually wiping off my phone screen because I'm drooling 😁

    Beautiful! Sylvan Lake is so beautiful and you can walk around it. The flakes are mica. It makes a beautiful sparkly trail/road. I did that hike 5 or 6 years ago. It kicked my mostly non-hiking butt, but gearing up to do it again. The Black Hills are special and the place I love to go to rejuvenate. I am so fortunate to live within 3.5 hrs of this beautiful place. Enjoy!

    What a beautiful hike. Thank you for sharing it with us. The scenery and flowers are awesome. The music fit perfectly. Wow! The campground is amazing. The amenities are for sure "uptown, high-rent"! I would have a problem leaving a campground like that. Food and live music take it over the top.

    Love that area. Did you know, the movie National Treasure was filmed at that lake. At the end of the movie when they found a secret passageway in the granite that sticks up out of the lake and followed it to the treasure. That hike has been on my bucket list for a while now. Glad we got to go with you. Thanks

    Outstanding Video! Used to be my back yard playground 1996-2008 while I worked in the B Hills SD. Miss that place every day
    We did that climb you were on every New Years Eve…
    Put screws in bottom of our shoes and always wore gaiters to keep out those small limestone pebbles out.
    During my time it was called Harney Peak. Before the name change
    Well done as always
    If you get a chance check out Mt Rushmore Brewery Custer SD
    My friend and his wife started those amazing brews. Enjoy SD

    You talked about doing the needles highway sometime. When you do there is a hiking trail called Cathedral Spires. It is awsome! I also agree with those who commented on Spearfish Canyon. Especially in the fall when the leaves have changed.

    Another great hike and yes, Kelly, the camp ground is definitely 'up town, high rent'! ✔++ for that shower house! Looked like a really nice party. Good music! Cody, takin the back seat on this one and lovin that jerky! Made me laugh! Was that a pica on the hike? It went by so fast! I will have to rewatch and check it out! Might have been a chipmunk!? Was the lg building with green roof the lodge? Did I say that camp ground was really nice?!? U guys did look tired at the end of that day. Made for a good night's sleep, I bet! Thanks for the tag-along! Safe travels till next time🌞

    Cody's passion for geography reminds me of a guy I dated who was a Geographer. It's super interesting to find out how many of the formations we see were actually formed. He was also passionate about finding geodes' and about drove me out of my mind looking for them during hikes. You'd never do this to Kelly, but he was slinging rocks, didn't bring a pick and I almost got hit in the face with rock shards a couple of times. As you can imagine, I wasn't pleased. Stay safe and God bless you.
