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 8).
“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. (MT) 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.
