My son and I will be starting in Deadwood June 8, riding to Hill City, Edgemont, Custer, then returning to Deadwood to camp June 11. Where do people leave their vehicles when they are on the trail?

This was an answer I gave to (I think) the same question last week:

Right next to the Mickelson Trailhead sign in Deadwood at 103 Charles St. you'll find a large parking lot. I parked my SUV there for 4 days in 2023. At least at that time, there was no charge to park there.

There are also 219 free parking spaces at the Deadwood Welcome Center at 501 Main Street. Although they probably fill up fast in the summer.

Good luck.
