Spearfish Canyon Scenic Byway Traditional Cache

The Spearfish Canyon Scenic Byway, located in the northern Black Hills, is unique because the view is always close to the visitor and always upward. The narrow canyon walls rise sharply skyward from Spearfish Creek and the highway sculpted along the canyon bottom. A forest of spruce, pine, aspen, birch, and oak covers much of the hillsides. Above these slopes, the skyline is topped with an extensive ridge of vertical walled limestone cliffs. The cache is located near the northern end of the byway and a parking lot nearby provides easy access. The cache is a small container that will hold small tradable items. BYOP.
