1 Best Sight in The Southern Black Hills, South Dakota

Badger Hole

Cowboy poet Charles Badger Clark was the first poet laureate of South Dakota and spent 30 years of his life in a rustic cabin within Custer State Park. He died in 1957, but his cabin is preserved and open to visitors. There's a 1-mile hiking trail behind the cabin that's still lined with some of Clark's stonework.
