It looks like the Black Hills are starting to get folks’ attention. The Kona blog has a very complimentary post about the trails in and around Rapid City, including some great shots from M-Hill. The Hanson Larsen Memorial Park Foundation is really turning M-Hill into a fantastic trail system and it’s sure bring more attention when people see what it’s become.
