Creatures of the Night Hide & Seek
Can you find what goes bump in the night? In this self-guided activity, we’re challenging you to find several nighttime creatures of South Dakota! Just hike the trails at participating state parks and Outdoor Campuses, keeping your eyes open for the informational signs and hidden nocturnal animal pictures along the way. Find them all and email us the secret code words to enter the prize drawing!

Be sure to include your selfie, the five code words, your name and address, and the participating location’s name.
HOW TO PARTICIPATE:
Snap a selfie with the rules sign at the beginning of the trail. Include all members of your group; you get one entry for each person in the photo!
