| Description: | The Cosmos Mystery Area is one of those
out-of the way spots where things just don't seem quite
right. Or, are they just optical illusions? You decide.
Trees seem to grow crooked, balls roll up hill
and tourists can stand on walls. As "mystery spots" go,
Cosmos is considered to be among the best. That may be damning with faint praise, but we've taken kids there and the younger ones enjoyed it very much. Contact: Cosmos Mystery Area Mail: 24040 Cosmos Road, Rapid City, SD 57702. Info: 605-343-9802. |
