In 2017 I did a road trip to south Dakota and Colorado. I live in southern Illinois so I traveled north to south Dakota and made a few stops along the way. After going through South Dakota, we drove down to Colorado, and then back home. This list will focus on what we did in South Dakota only. I skipped a couple of places that tend to show up on tourists lists because I didn't have time or it was out of the way. I skipped Deadwood and and the Crazy Horse memorial. I saw the Crazy Horse memorial from the road. I am sure there is plenty more to do in South Dakota, but this is what I did and enjoyed.
