Until the Indians first laid eyes on these majestic peaks, no one had seen the Black Hills. Beneath the towering granite spires lay undiscovered treasures of clear streams, deep forests, and boundless wildlife. To the Indians, this is where the Great Spirit lived and still lives to this day. When one sees the natural wonders that surround Custer, they will understand why the Indians were so enchanted. In 1874, General George Custer led the 7th Cavalry on a scientific expedition into the Black Hills. His mission was to confirm the growing speculations of gold. After traveling across the rolling Dakota prairie, Custer and his men were welcomed by the splendor of these mystical mountains. From their camp near the present day city of Custer, they found wealth beyond gold : The enduring beauty of the Black Hills. With the discovery of gold, a steady flow of eager prospectors began to fill the French Creek Valley. Following them were: businessmen, laborers, and professionals that would build the nearby city of Custer. From its beginning, Custer was built to accommodate visitors, as its streets were wide enough to turn a wagon train around. Today, these same wide streets are lined with some of the best motels and restaurants in the Black Hills. Make Custer the center of your vacation and see the Hills from here. Its just a short drive to every major attraction in western South Dakota. Mount Rushmore is only minutes away, and nearby, the carving of Crazy Horse is a work in progress. Experience the vast beauty of the Black Hills National Forest, explore the deep mysteries of Wind Cave National Park and Jewel Cave National Monument, and climb the scenic heights of Harney Peak and the Needles Highway. Then, come back to Custer for a pleasant nights rest. Tomorrow is another adventurous day in the Black Hills. Get a close-up view of nature in Custer State Park. Wander through a mountain meadow and see one of the largest free roaming herds of buffalo. Camp along a pristine stream or lake and catch a feisty trout. Hike into the forest and spot bighorn sheep and mountain goats. Although, seasons may change, the beauty and excitement never ends in Custer
