Wild Irishman is a seasonal, rough dirt road starting at the Schroeder Trailhead off Nemo Road just outside Rapid City. Visitors can expect dirt and gravel roads with small embedded rocks. Wild Irishman, also a popular hiking location, was once a connector between the east and west sides of the Shanks and Schroeder Trail systems. Unfortunately, the western end of Wild Irishman is now closed due to private property. Access to the other parts of the system can be had through various connector trails.
A large gravel parking lot marks the Schroeder Trailhead and the beginning of Wild Irishman. This lot is suitable for campers, staging, or parking of trailers for offroad rigs. Those seeking the Flat Nasties rock crawling trail may find this lot useful as well. Further down Wild Irishman is a clearing that would allow smaller vehicle-based camping but may prove too rocky and uneven for ground tents.
