About three years ago, our good friends the Hammers moved away from Papillion to South Dakota. On our drive back from Canada we were excited to finally get the chance to visit them for a couple of days. It was just like old times and they were so welcoming and hospitable. The area was gorgeous and amid the famous Black Hills there are some beautiful things to see and do.
The next day, the Hammers took us to Sylvan Lake which was absolutely breathtaking. We went for a hike and there was so much to explore. There were a lot of rocks to climb on which was really fun for the kids. They loved to climb and explore. Then we had a picnic lunch and the kids and dads went swimming. They could swim out to some cool rocks and jump in. It was great.

Sylvan Lake was a great spot. You should go sometime if your ever in the area.
After that adventure we went for ice cream and then the moms and toddlers went for a rest while the boys and big kids went on an adventure to a place called "Hippie Hole."
Kevin may add a better description of the events but it sounds like a treacherous hike and some dangerous cliff jumping. Heres a link to a video of Brayden and Kevin jumping off some rocks about 30 feet up and then a video of some teenagers (not with us but by them) jumping off from about 90 feet up.
