Ouster Connty, the Foreet Servtoe has
a orew of twenty men and a number of
teams with a complete equipment of
road working maohlntry employed in
opening op that portion of the Dead
wood-Denver road which haa hereto
fore been Impassible. Thla is the pieoe
of road whioh lies Immediately north
of Sylvan lake and exten de towards
Hill Oity. Thle hae been one of the
heavleet pleoee of oonstructlon work to
do on the road, but ^elnoe the Foreet

eeason the work haa now reaohed a
point where It will be poaalble to oom

tinus the work on account or oold
weather. From 8y|van Lake to Outer
and on through to Prlngle from Ouster
a number ot bad placei in the road
flfcve been eliminated thle present
eeason ao that It may be said that thle
eectlon of the highway Is now In fairly
g^cd co dlt'oa. From Prloglsto Wind
Oav» Ouster Oounty hae thle eeason
repaired a number of the brldgee and
put in good shape several atretchee of
the road whioh were heretofore all but
impassible. Through the Wind Cave
National Park where a herd of hnffalo
and elk ere kept, Superintendent Dllle
of the Wind Oave Park hae made a
number of Improvemente and a
thoroughly good road hae been fton
•truoted between the Wind Oave build
inge and the north boundray of. the
Park. Just north of the Park boundary
in Oueter Oounty there remain a short
eectlon of the road to oomplete before
the portion of the road whioh has baen
oonatrnoted by Superintendent Dllle
oan be used, but It Is thought that it
will be poesible to open up thle ehort
pisoe or road before the beginning of
another eeason.
With the oompletion of the work,
now In progreea by the forcM at work
upon the Deadwood Ddnver Highway
the Black Bllle eeotlon of this highway
will be In first. olaw omdttion for
spring of 1915.
Everyone who is
familiar with the
modi routing of thlaroad agrees the
portion which ie within the Blaok
will be one of the moet popular
waye in the west. With Hot Springs
and Deadwood at the terminals, with
Wind Oav* and Its herd or buffalo and
•Ik, Ouster, Sylvan Lake, Bill Oity and
Paotola whioh are eurrounded by the
moet beautiful mountain aoenery, along
the route,it would be difficult to find a
more attrootlve mountain highway.
