Library presents Miles City to Deadwood Stage Coach Road program

A few years back, land surveyor Charles M. “Mike” Madler ran across an old trail marked on an 1883 Government Land Office Survey Plat that sparked an interest in him. He spent years trying to re-establish the route using 19th century records with the technology available now in the 21st century. He compiled all his findings into a book and museum exhibit.

He will present his findings with stories of interesting people, places and other tidbits of knowledge he found along the way.

Join us Fri., Sept. 9, 7 p.m. in the library meeting room as Mike takes you along the Miles City to Deadwood stage route.
