Sylvan Lake (South Dakota)
Sylvan Lake, known as the "crown jewel" of Custer State Park, is located in the Black Hills of South Dakota. Created in 1881 when Theodore Reder built a dam across Sunday Gulch, it offers picnic areas, rock climbing, small rental boats, swimming, and hiking trails. It is also popular as a starting point for excursions to Harney Peak and The Needles. A hotel was operated on the shore of the lake in the early 20th century.

Needles (Black Hills)
The Needles of the Black Hills of South Dakota are a region of fantastically eroded granite pillars, towers, and spires.
