50 inch ATV trails! These trails are gated effectively, strategically placed rocks and fallen trees control the trail width, while forest service patrol for violators. Grass and forbs grow between the two track trails. Shrubs brush against the side of your atv, and trees canopy overhead helps make it a great atv trail experience.
These trails appear to be somewhat susceptible to damage. The trails are dirt rather than rock, and water collects easily in low spots. If you have a choice, choose to ride here when the trails are dry.
To explore the Black Hills National Forest or ride the Mickelson Trail, Deadwood Outdoor Rentals is your perfect destination.
You can access these trails from the Blacktail Trailhead or from the Reuter Trailhead. Even though Blacktail is 30 plus miles North of Sundance it is worth the drive. If you access from Reuter, take Trail 1041 where it intersects with 854 (Bearlodge Road). It is a little difficult to find but when found it is well signed.
As you ride keep an eye to the West to get a view of Devils Tower.
BearLodge Fire Tower is a great destination to start your ride.
Evidence of General Custer’s visit to the area can be found at the Inyan Kara gravesite and at the July 21 Custer Camp.
If you have time visit the Devil’s Tower National Monument. The Tower is an astounding geologic feature that protrudes out of the prairie surrounding the Black Hills.
Emil Reuter’s gravesite is just one example of the areas old mining history, and the Baby Doll Mine is another.
