This was such a fun lake to visit in South Dakota! I absolutely recommend visiting this part of South Dakota anyway since there is just so many things to do. There are many walking trails of all levels of difficulty and scenery. #Lemon8Diary #lemon8contest #lemon8challenge #placestovisit

I took a quick trip to SD and I’m definitely going back. It was a great place to relax and see the stars… I also saw a wolf that I mistook for a dog for about a minute. My pictures don’t do it justice but it’s a great alternative to Colorado or Wyoming is you want to try something different.
