Poet’s Table
Poet’s Table is a neat little local spot in Custer State Park where people go to sit and enjoy nature and write their thoughts down. There is a table, a chair, and a cupboard full of journals that people have shared their thoughts in for many years. The trail to Poet’s Table is not always easy to find, and the hike to get there can be hard for some. During the summer months it can be busy as more and more people learn of this local treasure. The rest of the year, you can go there and have hours to yourself. If you have time, I suggest you check it out.
