HOT SPRINGS, SD – Maintenance crews at Wind Cave National Park will be working on Red Valley Road, also known as NPS 6, beginning July 31 and continuing at least through August 11. During this period, the road will be closed from the junction of Highland Ridge Road (NPS 5) to the border with Custer State Park. This work is intended to improve the damaged road surface, making it easier for low clearance vehicles to use the road.  

Contact the park at (605) 745- 4600 for further information.
