Spearfish, SD
A college town at the mouth of Spearfish Canyon.
Spearfish sits where Spearfish Creek comes out of the Hills, and the canyon road south of town is one of the prettiest drives in the region, with limestone walls and waterfalls along the way. Black Hills State University keeps the town lively, and the D.C. Booth Historic National Fish Hatchery has raised trout beside the creek since the 1890s. It's a good base for the northern Hills, and it's close to the Wyoming line.
About 45 minutes from Rapid City by car.
