As you start the Historic Walking Tour, you will come upon the Bank of Spearfish which is now the visitor information center. In front of the visitor center is the clock tower. On top of the clock tower is the infamous Termesphere. Dick Termes actually hand painted this globe in his perspective of what Spearfish really is. The public is able to view this landmark at any time of the day.
