Hi, I’m Katie, a lifelong Rapid City local passionate about the Black Hills and Badlands. I’ve explored these landscapes extensively—hiking trails, spotting wildlife at dawn, finding hidden gems—and love sharing authentic stories of geology, wildlife, Native history, and pioneer spirit. I also enjoy bringing a quiet, heartfelt touch to special moments as a wedding officiant—perhaps a gentle vow renewal at sunset or simply helping your day feel a little more meaningful. I offer personalized small-group and private tours to iconic sites like Mount Rushmore and the Badlands, including unique experiences such as rock and gem hunting, family-friendly outings to local attractions, and guided explorations of Wind Cave National Park along with many other stunning caves in the Black Hills. I’m available for day tours 7 days a week and focus on creating flexible, stress-free, and memorable experiences tailored to your interests.
