I’m so excited to share this guide to Ellsworth AFB with you! I lived at Ellsworth AFB for four years and truly loved it more than I even thought I could. Now that I’ve PCS’d from Ellsworth, I had so much fun curating this guide and remembering every fond memory of our time there. I hope you enjoy your time in the beautiful Black Hills as much as I did, and I hope this guide helps you on your way to doing so!
Things to know about Ellsworth Air Force Base
While living at Ellsworth we truly learned to embrace the beauty of small town life and appreciating nature for what it was! There are so many opportunities to get out into the Hills and explore the area around it and we loved it for that! Oh, and also I adopted the Midwest slang word ‘Ope!’
