South Dakota

Part of United States of America

South Dakota's biggest draw is Mount Rushmore, carved into the Black Hills and finished in 1941 after fourteen years of work.

Badlands National Park nearby has some of the strangest rock formations in the country, striped in layers of color. Every August, Sturgis hosts a motorcycle rally that briefly multiplies the town's population many times over.

Rapid City makes a good base for reaching all of it.
