Alrighty. Drove about 1.5 hours NW from my last spot at Gold Run Park parking lot in Lead, SD to my spot here….at Devils Tower, WY. Beautiful drive through the SD and WY Black Hills. Was quite hazy from wildfires
Anyway, this is a cool little state run campground, and the only one inside the Monument boundaries. It’s called Belle Fourche River Campground. 50 sites. 2 loops, A and B. Campground host on each loop, and they are very active in the park, checking on things and greeting people. All the sites are pretty big. Pull thru sites, with plenty of space to set up tents, etc. All sites have a picnic table and firepit with grilltop (fire ban is in effect….signs posted that you will be arrested if you start a fire!) There are dumpsters and vault toilets spread throughout. Lots of nice shade trees, but unfortunately they block your views of the tower as well….and almost totally at some sites….but I’m sure it can get super hot
Not much else to do in the area, so this will be a one and done for me and likely most people that visit…..but I think seeing the Devils Tower is bucket list worthy….and this camp makes it a pleasure to help make it happen!
More Later……
