  • What could be better than Yellowstone Park? Well we found a State Park that we think is way more enjoyable, Custer State Park in the Black Hills of South Dakota! With only half the visitors per year, no chance of grizzlies raiding your camp and horse friendly rules we certainly love Custer State Park.
    As always thank you for watching!
    God Bless!

    I haven't rode a horse in over 60 years! Then I rode only on my late brother's farm. They were fun times. Custer State Park was my favorite place to camp for decades. Now I find my adventures exclusively on the internet. Your videos provide wonderful reminisce. Please continue sharing your adventures. BTW Kansas has wonderful hills & parks too. It's NOT flat.

      ​. The one thing about the Sierras, the elevations going over the passes, you're up over 11,000 ft.. We always used the Rock Creek Pack Station stock because they were acclimated to the high altitude . It is truly inspiring to be "on top of the world " on horses and mules !

      Not anything crazy that I can think of… that particular storm was a little worrisome because lightning was striking the ridge line across from us which is when we bailed down into the draws. We also had that herd of cow and calf bison come stampeding up to us trying to get out of the storm. We didn’t catch it on video but we thought they might run right through the mules lol we did our best to stay out of their way and give them space haha. We’ve gotten into some deep snow before on the mules and that wasn’t fun. We got them turned around and out of it but we felt bad for that… we couldn’t tell how deep the drift was and it was WAY deeper than we thought. Thankful all was okay.
