2084 photos taken, 1550 miles driven, 12 different locations, and only 6 Cliff Bars eaten. (White Chocolate Macadamia Nut is my favorite) So where did this road trip lead me too? The Dakotas.
The week before I left, the plan was to head up to Montana to photograph an abandoned schoolhouse and church. After more research, I come to find out that the schoolhouse was renovated last year and the church has its own Facebook page and can be booked for weddings. Uhhhh… that’s not really my idea of abandoned places. So I quickly had to figure out Plan B and mapped out 5 different locations in North and South Dakota. Which quickly grew to 12 by the time I got there. JACKPOT!!!!!
Acting on a recommendation from a friend, I stopped for the night in Hulett, Wyoming to see Devil’s Tower. The first declared United States National Monument established in 1906, by President Roosevelt. Or, some of you might know it as the mountain from Close Encounters of the Third Kind.

Your pictures are amazing and making me home sick. I grew up an hour away from Devil’s Tower in the Black Hills. Thanks for sharing.
