The 1972 Flood devastated Rapid City and surrounding communities. More than ten inches of rain fell in just over six hours on June 9, 1972. Rapid Creek and several other Black Hills streams overflowed their banks. The failure of the dam at Canyon Lake sent water rushing through Rapid City. 238 people were killed and more than 3,000 injured. | Pennington County Sheriff's Office
