Tatanka: Story of the Bison

Reviewed By 741PamelaD

We visited on August 23rd. The cultural interpreter was a Lakota gentleman who spoke for an hour and we could have listened another hour! He was extremely informative and personable. Then we walked the grounds and viewed the extraordinary life-size bronze sculptures depicting a "buffalo drop". They alone are worth the visit.

Do yourself a favor and go see this hidden gem in the Black Hills! Seth Bullock had this tower built in honor of his best friend, President Roosevelt! When Seth died, he was buried facing it ....
