I'm not sure if camping is still permitted, but when I was a kid, I used to camp here with my dad and brother. Being so far away from civilization, the sky becomes literally milky with stars. So many you can't even distinguish one from another. If you want to get a sense of what kind of land the plains Indian tribes lived on, this is an ideal place to go. You used to be able to climb to the top of the second, more rounded butte, but I think they have closed that off in the last decade or so. The view from the top is unreal. Thanks for the post! Thoroughly enjoyable. This is an absolutely fantastic place. I’m not sure if camping is still permitted, but when I was a kid, I used to camp here with my dad and brother.
