Bear Butte State Park

Many American Indians see Bear Butte as a place where the creator has chosen to communicate with them through visions and prayer.

These prayer cloths and tobacco ties represent the prayers offered by individuals during their worship. Please respect these offerings and leave them undisturbed.
