Mount Moriah Cemetery where Bill Hickok and Calamity Jane are buried is in town. Very steep grade narrow suburb road to the entrance. Took my class C up there and found a sign that said I was not supposed to do that.
Driving into town there was a parking area with a sign telling all the big rigs to stay out park here walk in. Streets are very narrow. We drove though but did not stop in town. Not very far out of town is Mount Rushmore. We continued on to Fort Laramie. A bit of a drive but the best part of the trip.
The Fort is a living fort during the summer, everyone dressed in period clothes, all the buildings are original from the Indian wars. Very large fort first stop for pioneers after crossing the planes. Besides Custer's battle field, there is Old Fort Phil Kearny, The Wagon Box Fight, and the Fetterman Massacre site near Phil Kearny. Study the history before you go, the trip will be much more interesting. We did this with our children before we visited historical sites.
