Spearfish Canyon

Spearfish Canyon runs approx. 35 miles from O'Neil Pass, elev. approx 6500 ft., near the South Dakota / Wyoming border to the town of Spearfish, elev approx 3500 ft. We live above the Canyon about 10 minutes away in an old gold mining town of Lead, pronounced (Leed). My pal Buddy and I go out there almost every day and always take the camera.
