Archeology in the Black Hills
National Forest
The Black Hills has been termed an "Island in the Plains." As can be seen by the Landsat photo below, this is certainly the case. The human occupation goes back at least 10,000 years. The archeological sites, recreation activities, timber sales, cattle production and the Native American activities all must be managed by the Forest Service.
The links to the left will take you current and past projects done as part of the Passport in Time volunteer program. Enjoy!
