第三天  2010.09.26  (星期日)   艷陽天
我們在參觀完Bear Country 之後再返回 Rapid City,由此上I-90州際公路西行,下個景點是走走I-90州際公路旁的Spearfish Canyon Scenic Byway,參觀Devils Tower National Monument,然後回家,結束三天的旅程。


Spearfish Canyon Scenic Byway
The Spearfish Canyon Scenic Byway位在南達科塔州Black Hills北邊,狹窄的峽谷岩壁由Spearfish Creek陡峭突起,直指天際, 整條公路就沿著谷底蜿蜒延伸, 雲杉、高山松、白楊木、白樺樹和橡樹間雜長滿山坡,上千呎或褐色、或粉紅色、或灰色的石灰岩岩壁排列在這條景觀道路的兩側。這條景觀道路也就是 US-14A公路,一路從I-90 州際公路旁小鎮Spearfish 往南沿著Spearfish Creek 蜿蜒曲折20哩,直 到南接 US-85 公路,開車行走其間,夏天是一片翠綠,秋天是滿目金黃;蜿蜒的小河、入雲的峭壁、絲絹般的瀑布,有時讓駕駛人真目不暇給。
這段景觀道路我們因為行程太滿,所以是從I-90州際公路 Exit 14出口進Spearfish 小鎮,然後沿US-14A公路南下,走到 Spearfish Canyon Lodge 便折回,沒能參觀 Deadwood 小鎮,是有點遺憾。因為是假日,雖不至於說是車水馬龍,但車潮不斷的湧入仍讓人以為是行走於市集之中呢!白楊木正換上彩裝,金黃一片,女兒說:賺到了!

給要走這條景觀道路的朋友們一個建議,若由I-90公路西行可在 Exit 30 出口走US-14 公路,沿途參觀歷史小鎮 Deadwood,然後沿途觀賞這條風景線再由 Spearfish 接回I-90州際公路,反之則由 Spearfish 南下,再由Deadwood 接回 I-90 州際公路(點此看路線圖)
