Tribal Land, The Standing Rock Indian Reservation.
"… and then we are on the other side. .. We climb a long, long hill into another kind of country. .. The fences are really all gone now. No brush, no trees. The sweep of the hills is so great John’s motorcycle looks like an ant up ahead moving through the green slopes. Above the slopes outcroppings of rocks stand out overhead at the tops of the bluffs.“
5 MiW of Mobridge, ND. shows the view just over the first hill from the river, as the ZMM Route continues Northwest on Rt12. (Please turn off room lights to view this darker image.) I restrained myself from photographing a huge gambling casino just to my rear left.
....This monument to the human vice that imports itself into this empty pristine territory was to me obscene. Especially obscene In view of Narrator’s description (next photo) of this Tribal Land untouched by human activity. I did not find any “over hanging bluffs”. Perhaps they have been removed by highway widening?
