CAMPERS OPERATING A Wi-Fi ROUTER (HOTSPOT)
Hart Ranch offers free Wi-Fi throughout the resort. To allow for the most effective utilization of the
Wi-Fi network, all AP’s (access points) will be configured to negotiate with computers manufactured
in 2010 and later… (1) If your computer was manufactured prior to 2010, its network adapter cannot
efficiently negotiate with the newer Wi-Fi protocols. (i.e. 802.11n on both 2.4GHz and 5.0GHz) (2) You
will know if your computer is pre-2010 by being able to ‘see’ available Wi-Fi networks, but ‘unable’ to
connect to any of them. (i.e. computer network adapters using 802.11a, b, g)
Instead of buying a new computer to overcome an outdated network adapter, the Hart Mart has
Wireless Adapters available that are compatible with the park’s access points. Once the software is
loaded into your computer, simply plug the new adapter into a USB port and you will have Wi-Fi access
to both the 2.4 GHZ and 5.0 GHz broadcast frequencies.
If you have further questions, or need assistance making the transition to an updated Wi-Fi adapter,
please contact us through the front desk.

The Legend
His name was John Harrison Hart, and
he settled the ranch in the 1880s. It is
only fitting that this land bears his name
today.
Hart was straight from the pages of
Old West history, and he carved out his
ranching empire while Wild Bill Hickok
and Calamity Jane roamed the streets of
Lead and Deadwood.
There is much about him which is legend, but far more which is fact. This bull
driver, Civil War fighter, scout, pioneer,
and frontiersman blazed a reputation
remembered even today by those who
live around the ranch. The legend says he
arrived in the Black Hills with only $15 in
his pocket and survived the first winter
by chopping wood for 75¢ a cord. The
facts show his hard work, entrepreneurial
skill, and innovative mind parlayed what
little he had into a successful freight line
from Pierre to Rapid City and Cheyenne,
Wyoming.
The legend says he never learned to
drive a car, even though he lived to see
World War II. The fact is that you still
can find people who remember driving
him around his ranch when – too old to
ride a horse or wagon anymore – he just
couldn’t stand being away from the land
he loved.
The final chapter of our story is the
purchase of the 13,000-acre Hart Ranch
in 1983 and the construction of the
Camping Resort. In 1984 the membership
was deeded for the 195-acre resort. There
are several companies associated with
the Hart Ranch name – Hart Ranch Golf
Course and Hart Ranch Development
Company. The Hart Ranch Camping Resort
Club is an independent and separate
corporation.
Be sure to learn more about the
history of Hart Ranch by visiting the
Hart Ranch Heritage Center in the Upper
Lodge!

Black Hills Attractions
When doomed cavalry Colonel George Armstrong Custer first entered the Black Hills in 1874,
he found a strikingly beautiful land filled with mountain meadows, granite spires and thick
ponderosa forests. Nearly 140 years later, visitors to the Black Hills can still enjoy the same
adventure, freeroaming wildlife and breathtaking vistas that so impressed the explorers who
came here so long ago.
With two million acres spanning a region 120 miles long and 60 miles wide, it’s practically an
adventure just figuring out where to begin exploring the Black Hills. After all, this region is
home to the highest concentration of public parks, monuments and memorials in the nation.

BADLANDS NATIONAL PARK
Almost a quarter million acres of eroded buttes, jagged peaks and sandy plateaus make
Badlands National Park one of the most striking landscapes in the world. Sunsets and
sunrises are especially beautiful times of the day, casting hues of pink, yellow and
orange against the rock walls. Wild bison, coyotes, bighorn sheep and prairie dogs roam
freely within the park’s borders. The Pine Ridge Indian Reservation encompasses the
southern Stronghold Unit of the park, where the Ghost Dances of the 1890s were held.
The area is also one of the world’s richest Oligocene epoch fossil beds, where animals 25
million years old continue to be discovered.

home of several camping facilities and
rustic lodges, including the State Game
Lodge, dubbed the “Summer White House”
in 1927 when President Calvin Coolidge spent
three months vacationing here. Several
lakes and streams provide fantastic fishing,
while the 1,500 bison that call this place
home – one of the largest publicly-owned
herds in the world – put on a fantastic show
during the annual Buffalo Roundup.
JEWEL CAVE
NATIONAL MONUMENT
The third-longest cave in the world is
located just a few miles from Wind Cave,
leading some experts to believe that the
two caverns are actually part of a giant
network that stretches throughout the
Black Hills. Besides cave tours, ranger-led
hikes on the surface are a popular activity.
Bat-lovers are especially fond of Jewel
Cave, since around 1,500 bats of at least
six different species use the caverns for
shelter throughout the year.
THE MICKELSON TRAIL
Converted from former railroad beds, the 117 miles of the Mickelson Trail bisects
the entire length of the Black Hills, connecting Deadwood to Edgemont and passing
through many central Black Hills communities along the way. In the summer it’s
used for hiking, mountain biking and horseback riding, and in the winter months it
turns into a groomed snowmobile trail. Tunnels, waterfalls, ruined mining buildings
and ghost towns are among the many sights of interest along the trail.
DEVILS TOWER NATIONAL MONUMENT
Rising 1,267 feet straight out of the prairie, Devils Tower is perhaps best known
for its role in “Close Encounters of the Third Kind.” Designated as the nation’s first
national monument by President Theodore Roosevelt in 1903, Devils Tower is one
of the most challenging rock-climbing destinations in the country. A number of
less-strenuous hiking trails surround the tower itself, which rests along the red
banks of the Belle Fourche River in northeastern Wyoming.
DEADWOOD
There was a time when it wasn’t safe to
walk the boardwalks of the wildest and
woolliest town in the West. But that was
a hundred years and a dozen gunfights
ago. This is the town that welcomed Wild
Bill Hickok, then wept when he was gunned
down holding aces and eights, forever after
known as the “Deadman’s Hand.”
This is the place that witnessed the
one-woman cyclone known as Calamity
Jane, who claimed she could out-shoot,
out-spit and out-swear any man, and
usually did. Today, both are buried side-byside in Deadwood’s “Boot Hill.” Visitors now
encounter brick streets, period lighting,
old-time trolleys, Victorian facades and
one of the largest historic preservation
projects in the world, all fueled by an unlikely benefactor – limited stakes gaming,
complete with poker, blackjack and the
notorious one-armed bandits.

SPEARFISH CANYON
The breathtaking limestone palisades of this creek-carved gorge are more ancient than
the Grand Canyon – albeit much closer together. The narrow walls of Spearfish Canyon,
which rise up to 1,000 feet above the creek bed, are among the most spectacular scenery
in the Black Hills. Cascading waterfalls quench the thirst of quaking aspen, gnarled oaks,
sweet-smelling spruce and the ubiquitous ponderosa pine, which grow right off the edges
of rocky precipices. The diverse array of plant life provides a comfortable home for deer,
mountain goats, porcupines and bobcats. The canyon was accessible only by horseback
until a railroad line to Deadwood was completed in 1893. When a flood in 1933 all but
destroyed the tracks, a motorway was built right on top of the old rail bed.
Today, this road is U.S. 14A, one of America’s few designated scenic byways. The highway
continues through the canyon for nearly 20 miles, affording visitors views of both its
pristine natural wonders and its historical treasures. Near the middle of the canyon is the
old sawmill town of Savoy, which provides a jumping off point for several scenic hikes and
forays into ancient mining and logging camps. Further up the canyon is Cheyenne Crossing,
the point where the gold-rush era Deadwood- Cheyenne stage line crossed Spearfish Creek.
