Bear Butte
We visited Bear Butte State Park and Fort Meade in Sturgis 5 days ago. What a contrast to the cold and snow now! Not many motorcycles in Sturgis. They all went back home after the rally. The butte was formed around the same time as Devils Tower. It is a very distinctive formation on the prairie and another sacred site to the Native Americans. It was very hot and Emma was not allowed on the trails. We just visited the info center with Emma in the shade of a tree waiting in the car. Fort Meade was built to protect the Black Hills settlers. Today it is a National Guard training center and Veterans Hospital. There was a fort museum we visited which was just OK. We are kind of picky now!
