Mickelson Trail is worth your time

Anyone who has never stepped foot on the Mickelson Trail should do so the next time they trek to the Black Hills. The trail was built on the bed of an old railroad and snakes its way from Edgemont to Deadwood. Along its 109 miles, users of the trail travel over more than 100 railroad bridges, through four tunnels blasted into mountainsides and along numerous crystal clear trout brooks. Traveling even a few miles on the Mickelson Trail on a summer day is a true delight.
