Grizzly Creek Trailhead to Iron Creek Horse Camp

Yesterday we decided to make our first foray into the Black Elk Wilderness area. The Black Elk Wilderness and Norbeck Wildlife Preserve trail system has eighteen trails ranging in length from 0.6 miles to 8.9 miles. Many are situated so that one can form loops or use them to access peaks.
Photo Faves – November 2014
A selection of my favorite photos taken during the month of November. Active month of deer photography for me. I originally had an additional three deer photos included in the gallery, but decided that was a bit overkill lol
Lover’s Leap Trail

Lover’s Leap is a massive granite outcropping above the Galena Creek canyon, nearly 500 feet above the stream below. Because the rock juts out from the canyon ridge, it offers fantastic views of this area of the Black Hills.
