I left the Adrian campsite and got back on the highway. I stopped at a rest stop that had an information center, where I picked up some brochures on different things to do in South Dakota—biking, hiking, horseback riding, caving. I asked the lady working there about Hot Springs, a town on the south end of the Black Hills. She said there are hot running streams there. I said “I guess there’s lava down there.” She said “We don’t know what’s down there. It’s just hot water.”
I stopped for breakfast at a friendly diner in Sioux City. Then I drove through town to get to Falls Park. There used to be a flour mill at this falls, which included a seven-story building; only the first floor walls remain.
There were some teens jumping off the rocks next to the falls. I was able to get a couple of pics of this before a park employee told them to get down. She told me that a young boy had gone over the falls recently.
I stayed about an hour then visited the historical marker on top of a nearby hill before getting back on the highway.
