Boothill Tours by KimberlyAnn
This is a narrated open air bus tour that will tell you about such things as the 1876 Gold Rush, about historic buildings on Main Street, the early role of Chinese in Deadwood, the killing of Wild Bill and the trial of Jack McCall who killed him, and explain why gambling was once again legalized in Deadwood. The tour will take you to Boot Hill, the historic Mt. Moriah Cemetary, where you will see the graves of Wild Bill Hickok and Calamity Jane. Be aware that if you wish to visit additional graves, you will have to come back on your own. From the cemetery you will have a high view of Deadwood and the surrounding hills (see photo 2). The tour runs about one hour, leaving from a small bodega set up on 662 Main Street where you also purchase your tickets. Tours run daily, June through October. Times vary, so check the bodega to see when the tours will run.
