The Porter Sculpture Park in Montrose, S.D., is regularly rated as one of America’s best roadside attractions. More than 60 large-scale metal sculptures grace the site, all created by local artist Wayne Porter. Porter himself greets visitors to the site and continues to create new works. The site is nestled in tall prairie grass, with dozens of resident prairie dogs and birds also making their home on the site.
Porter works from his family farm and blacksmith shop 20 miles from the sculpture park, making transporting the multi-ton works projects in themselves!
