Original Deadwood Tour
We start with the Ft. Laramie Treaty of 1868. Tell you about Custer's Expedition to the Black Hills, which incidentally started the Gold Rush of 1874. We continue with tales of the infamous Jack McCall and end with present-time history. You will see historical landmarks, points of interest and the Chinese and Badland sections of town. On the way to the cemetery, we recount ... More the legendary lives of Wild Bill Hickok, Calamity Jane and Potato Creek Johnny. Who is Potato Creek, you ask? Take our tour, and you will learn about this bigger-than-life character Deadwood is proud to call its own. While in the cemetery, we will point out other characters who contributed to Deadwood's history. Preacher Smith and Madam Dora DuFran are just two you will want to hear about. There is more! Mt. Moriah lookout, a 300-foot cliff, where spectacular pictures are made. Gaze down at Deadwood Gulch while enjoying the breeze and essence of ponderosa pine. We will tell you about the Homestake Gold Mine and other interesting facts on the way back.
