From Rapid City, South Dakota; go east on Highway 44. Turn off 44 at Scenic, going south, towards Pine Ridge. Pass Sheep Mountain. Continue until you go down a steep hill & cross a river. There you'll see the White River Visitor Center on Cuny Table Road. (If you get to Rockyford School, you've gone too far.)
Directions from Rockyford-Cuny Table Road:
Go west on gravel road from White River Ranger Station at Rockyford for 9 1/2 miles (pass the Cuny Table Cafe) until you see a road going north at the only high line going north. This turn off is opposite a church that can be seen at a distance. Turn right there (a fence post & powerline pole both have blue & white paint on them). The road soon turns to the west, with the powerline; follow until the powerline crosses to the other side of the road. A red arrow is nailed to the last powerline pole, where you turn onto the two-track. Follow this road, and the flags, north; you can't miss it. (The Onakinjin gate is about five miles off Cuny Table Road.)
