Summer Mickelson Trail Trek

South Dakota’s George S. Mickelson Trail is more than just a recreation Trail: it is a trail of history. You have the opportunity to travel the same path as General George A. Custer, Wild Bill Hickok, Calamity Jane, and Potato Creek Johnny. Burlington Northern built this rail line over 130 years ago to accommodate the miners who had rushed to the area to pan for gold. In 1983, the rail line was removed from servic,e and this incredible trail was envisioned. After years of planning, hard work, and determination, the trail became a reality. In celebration of the achievements of many forward‐thinking individuals and the incredible popularity of the Mickelson Trail Trek, we are introducing the Mickelson Summer Trek. This Friday, Saturday, and Sunday 3‐day ride covers almost the entire trail. Registration fee includes‐ shuttle service, 6 snacks, 3 meals, and $10 each in Custer Cash and Deadwood Gold Bucks. Riders can enjoy the beauty of the heart of the Black Hills as they travel through the scenic valleys, old railroad tunnels, and historic mining towns.

Be Sure to Remember your Helmet! They are MANDATORY!
