Veteran's Peak is a yearlong, short, rough dirt road with small embedded and loose rock, just off Vanocker Canyon Road on East Rim between Nemo and Sturgis. Veteran's Peak can be traversed by a stock truck, SUV, or crossover. In winter, Veteran's Peak can gather snow and become precarious due to the narrow trail with a steep bank on one side.
Veteran's Peak has two small clearings on the sides of the road suitable for a single ground or vehicle-based tent. If you need more camping space, you can find it further down the East Rim. Veteran's Peak offers vistas of the surrounding Black Hills and a glimpse of Bear Butte through the trees to the north.
