Twisty, turney byways
... several bulls advertising their presence. Nice skies were a bonus. Then back to camp... again,.
Sun am... (ah, you say; "maybe now we'll get to read about the twisty passages." Well, you're right.) we visited a small portion of Wind Cave's 139 (or 190+, depending on who's estimating) miles of "surveyed passages" (details on the park's website). They start at a woodchuck sized hole in the ...
