Attractions
History is a big deal in the Black Hills, and the 1881 Courthouse Museum houses one of the region’s most extensive collection of historical artifacts dating back to Lieutenant Colonel George Armstrong Custer’s 1874 Black Hills Exhibition. This former courthouse is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and features exhibits on Native Americans, mining and minerals, Victorian life, ranching, forestry, and military artifacts from the Revolutionary War through Operation Desert Storm. There’s also an original jail cell, one-room schoolhouse, and collection of antique cars. Four Mile Old West Town allows visitors to experience what life was like in the Old West as they wander through 50 open-door buildings on a self-guided tour. The Gordon Stockade is an exact replica of a log fortress built in 1874 to protect the Gordon Party from attacks by the Sioux during the Black Hills Gold Rush.
No trip to Custer is complete without exploring the outdoor scenery. The Custer Skywalk is a series of short trails that begin at Harbach Park, two blocks off Main Street. Head left for a covered observation point, then continue on the trail to the right to reach Big Rock Observation Point; both offer stunning views of the Black Hills and the city of Custer. The half-mile trail winds through ponderosa pine forests and, while the steep uphill climb may leave visitors out of breath, the views) are well worth the exertion.
Custer State Park may not be within the city limits, but it’s a must-see for visitors to the area any time of the year. This 71,000-acre nature and wildlife reserve offers plenty of opportunity for outdoor recreation and features some of the area’s most impressive scenery. You won’t even need to leave the comfort of your car if you opt for a drive along Iron Mountain Road or the Needles Highway.

The 18-mile Wildlife Loop Road provides visitors with up-close looks at wildlife such as bison, pronghorn antelope, prairie dogs, coyotes, elk, deer, and the park’s famous “begging burros.”
The community of Custer prides itself on being a destination for foodies. After you’re done exploring the attractions, grab a bite to eat or a tasty beverage from one of the town’s excellent restaurants or breweries!

Located in gold rich Custer County.
Gold prices have reached an all time high of over $4000 per ounce.
Amounts of float (loose sliding rocks) are on the claim.
In lode mining claim prospecting, float refers to loose fragments of rock, ore, or mineral-bearing material that have broken off from a larger, solid bedrock deposit (or "lode") and have been transported downhill.
Finding float is a key first-step clue in prospecting because it indicates that a potentially richer vein of ore exists somewhere uphill from where the fragment was found.

You would be acquiring an experience that will give you a good feel for what the old time prospectors must have felt during the days of the original Montana Gold Rush.

National Forests remained open at all times during the virus with a televised invitation by the Director for families to visit them as safe places for family recreation, making our mining claims soe of the safest places for your family to enjoy and get away from all the nonsense.
A lode claim differs from our placer claims, as on a lode claim you can dig into the mountain side and can even go to the extent of building a mine shaft.
Having a lode claim is an advantage as you can dig into the claim with a shaft if you choose.
Our lode claim has veins of valuable minerals including gold in veins (called lodes) cutting thru rocks. Quartz and gold are frequently found together and digging into the quartz vein is called chasing the vein.
A vein of quartz/gold runs thru the claim from South to North.
We also found the gems, Rose Quartz, the state mineral, Feldspar, and Blue-Green Tourmaline.
On the claim I found a quartz vein with gold traces in the rock.
Pick and shovel, rock hammer, metal detector, and is hard rock mining.
I did not expose the whole vein, though was able to follow it going through the claim, intermittently.
The process of lode, hard rock mining, is the process where gold is extracted directly from the lode vein beneath the ground. Dig down about 3 feet as go through the claim, then pick, shovel, and rock hammer working the sides of that hole. Filling in the holes when leave the claim as required by the national forest.
For the use of any machinery, you need to file a Plan of Operation with the BLM for approval.
Scratch your rock ore against an unglazed white ceramic streak plate.
If it's gold, it will leave a golden streak. Or scratch the surface of the specimen with a knife. Gold is a soft metal that will show scratch marks.
Our claim is a great area for gold and gem prospecting.
There are many well known South Dakota attractions within driving distance of this beautiful Black Hills area.
Pine forest is on part of the claim.
Beautiful Sylvan Lake 23 miles NE has many water activities.

The Black Hills Gold Rush took place in Dakota Territory in the United States.
It began in 1874 following the Custer Expedition and reached a peak in 187677.
The first arrivals were a force of 1,000 men led by George Armstrong Custer to investigate reports that the area contained gold, even though the land was owned by the Sioux. This would begin Custers conflicts with Native American Tribes.
In the ensuing decades, people have continued to find pockets of gold in the Black Hills.
