Mt. Roosevelt Friendship Tower









Mt Roosevelt Friendship Tower
Black Hills National Forest
Deadwood, South Dakota
September 2018

I'll let you read the signs, but basically Seth Bullock built this tower in 1919 to commemorate the life and death of his longtime friend Theodore Roosevelt. The trail from the parking lot is less than a mile. To get there I would suggest not taking Denver Avenue extended, especially if it is rainy and snowy, even if you are in a 4 wheel drive truck. You should take US Highway 85 to Mt Roosevelt Road (aka the paved road).
