Spearfish Canyon Road
Spearfish Canyon Road is a beautiful highway that is about 20 miles long. People come from all over the world to witness the changing colors of the canyon in the fall. The canyon is home to three waterfalls - Bridal View Falls, Spearfish Falls, and Roughlock Falls. The road follows a river, has many places to stop and hike along the way, and is popular among bicyclists. Dances of Wolves final scene in the movie was also filmed in this location in the area just west of Roughlock Falls.
Taken from the road while driving - don’t even have to get out of your car.
