DEADWOOD, S.D. – Mickelson Trail officials are reminding users
that they will be sharing the trail with participants of the
Deadwood Mickelson Trail Marathon this Sunday, June 5.
“Non-marathon folks are more than welcome to use the trail during
the weekend,” said Park Manager Dana Garry. “We just want to let
them know that there will be a large number of other users on that
stretch of the trail and ask that they be aware of slower-moving
users.”
Marathon runners will start from Rochford at 7 a.m. and finish
at the Deadwood Trailhead by approximately 4 p.m.
Garry says that observing proper trail etiquette, such as
staying off to one side and announcing yourself when approaching
behind another user, will allow all types of users to enjoy the
trail comfortably and safely.
