About the host

I'm a local South Dakotan, born and raised in the eastern part of the state. I have been enjoying the beautiful Black Hills my entire life. I enjoy spending time outdoors fishing, riding off-road on ATV's, hiking, and hunting. I'm blessed to have the opportunity to share the Black Hills with people from all over the world through hosting at Black Elk Resort.
