In Spearfish Canyon, one of the rare deciduous ecozones in the Hills:
The path that follows Rapid Creek, up behind Silver City. One of the most peaceful places I can think of - quiet, high canyon walls, birches and spruce, the lovely stream.
The path out to the Bighorn Sheep Preserve, which leads to a very windy overlook and a glimpse of the sheep, if you're lucky.
Another lovely path, this one behind Camp Judson, not far from Mt. Rushmore. It follows a tiny stream, with lots of big granite boulders and patches of ferns.
Lastly, a dirt track out on the prairie near the Badlands.
Thanks to DH for photos #2, 4, & 5.
What paths are you following these days?

just love the post with all of the path ways ~ all so unique while the same
my path is easy TODAY with almost grown girls and a sweet goofy dog!
Oh I love the badlands! One time I was there in the afternoon, went hiking, got a sunburn, drove to Yellowstone where it was snowing, and I promptly froze my little sunburned nose!
Beautiful photos :O)
We lived in Vermont for quite a few years and this part from a poem by Robert Frost is a favorite of mine:
"Two roads diverged in a wood and I,
I took the one less travelled by,
and that has made all the difference"
Lovely photos! Right now, the path I'm on is taking us to a place where we are satisfied with what God has given us and learning something new each day!
