Serving Deadwood, Lead, Spearfish, Belle Fourche, Rapid City, and Sturgis. Deer Mountain Deer Mountain offers ten miles of cross-country trails with loops for skiers ranging from novice to experience. Traditional cross-country skiers will enjoy the trails because they're groomed and patrolled. Skiers are pulled behind horses similar to water-skiers being pulled behind a boat. Snowboarders will be happy to know that an all-new intermediate and advanced snow park has been added this year.
Plans are underway for a quarter pipe with a fun box.
For those who enjoy their fun in the snow without being strapped to anything, Deer Mountain has a tub park. Plus, there's no toting of tubes back up the hill as a tow system is in place to pull tubers up to the top. All this and more awaits you at Deer Mountain, the largest ski area in the Black Hills. The Heart of Deadwood's Gaming Halls, which includes Miss Kitty's will have a float in the parade and it is expected that there will be other floats and marching units participating in this colorful event. The traditional fireworks, drums and cymbals will be very much in evidence in front of Miss Kitty's as the performers drive away the evil spirits.
