Needles Scenic Byway in South Dakota really is Awesome!!! July 2023

This highway is really outstanding. If you love mountain views, small tunnels, woods, rock formations, and curvy roads... then you should seriously consider driving this highway.

Mount Rushmore is near by. Bear Country park, which is super fascinating, is also close. Just north is Deadwood. Etc etc etc. Oh. And some car and bike museums around as well.
