Excerpt: South Dakota's state highways were assigned in a numbering pattern that followed that of the U.S. Highways followed upon their inception. East-west highways carried even numbers and increased from north to south - while north-south highways carried odd numbers and increased from east to west. This holds true only for 2-digit highways. 3-digit highways follow the odd-even routing, but do not sequentially remain near a "parent" route as a spur or alternate route, instead being more independent of any parent 2d route. The Bureau of Indian Affairs maintains a set of routes within the reservations of western South Dakota - using the standard BIA shield on green background. Decommissioned highway numbers are listed in italics. South Dakota Highway 87 is a highway running through the Black Hills of the U.S. state of South Dakota. The road's northern terminus is U.S. Route 16 and U.S. Route 385 about 3 miles (4.8 km) south of Hill City. The road's southern terminus is U.S. Route 385 about 6 miles (9.7 km) east of Pringle, South Dakota, or 14 miles (23 km) north of Hot Springs. The highway passes through Custer State Park and Wind Cave National Park. The northern 14 miles (23 km) of the highway is also known as the Needles Highway. The Needles Highway, along with the US 16A concurrency, are also part of the Peter Norbeck Scenic Byway. Portions of the highway are also a section of Custer State Park's Wildlife Loop. Because of the highway's mountainous, curving nature, it is closed during the winter. Highway 87 begins at US 385 in Wind Cave National Park, east of Pringle and west of the park headquarters. North of US 385, the route crosses Cold Spring Creek and provides access to the upstream Lake Norbeck, named after Senator Peter Norbeck, instrumental in establishing several of the national and state parks in the Black Hills. From the start, SD 87 is a very twisting and winding route, with a 180 hairpin turn a mere half-mile (0.8 km) from the southern terminus. This result
