Spotted at Bismarck Lake - Black Hills National Forest, SD

A brand new Oliver Elite 2 from Missouri - with a gray and silver front logo like mine!

The campground host says another Oliver came through 2 weeks ago!

If you have the time - be sure to drive Needles Highway since you are so close.  However, do not take the Ollie with you.

And, of course, the Custer State Park Wildlife loop road.

I assume that you already know about Mt. Rushmore.

@topgun2, both great suggestions. 

The wild life loop at/near dusk is simply amazing. We saw so much...

The interpretive Ranger-led presentation is well worth the time before you take the loop.  Enjoy!

How cool is that, right?

That’s us, from Missouri ❤️ First time to South Dakota and first time boon-docking. So nice to run into you the other day.

Absolutely wonderful!  This is one of the few times that a "spotted Ollie" has been recognized and confirmed.

Congrats to both of you!

Thank you, it was great to see another Oliver owner!

We've had a couple random and "not-so" random Oliver sighting this year - and we don't know why, but we get all excited whenever it happens...  We actually had a silver (same as our's) Tundra/Oliver rig pass us northbound on I-25 in CO a couple months ago - I woke up D and said, "Hey, Baby, that's what we look like rolling down the interstate!".  She laughed and went back to sleep.

Never really had that feeling in the AS community - know what I mean?

Cheers and "Ravel-On!", y'all

Absolutely - YES!

I've tried flashing high beams, waving out the window, and yelling (like that would do any good at 65 mph on the interstate with the other Ollie traveling in the opposite direction).  All this and still getting disappointed when there isn't any (or doesn't seem to be any) waving back.  I'm sure that I've missed a couple of Ollies in my travels because and I apologize if I didn't see you.

p.s.  kind of difficult to miss that one sitting outside your garage.😁

A first spotting for me, and I’m glad I found you.
