                 Countless historical sites surround Lake

                 Oahe and illustrate the area’s rich frontier
                 and Native American heritage.



               Take a drive into the past. Fort Sully, an old
               military outpost, lies across the Missouri
               River from Farm Island. North of Pierre, near
               the city of Mobridge, lies the grave of Sitting
               Bull, chief of the Lakota Sioux. Sacagawea,
               the Shoshone Indian woman who served
               as a translator on the Lewis and Clark
               expedition, is believed to be buried at nearby
               Fort Manuel Trading Post. Located east
               of Pierre on Highway 34, you’ll find Visions
               of the Past, life-size plasma-cut steel
               figures. The display includes 10 silhouettes,
               including riders scouting, a medicine man
               praying and bison.
