Ft Totten and White Horse

From our Grahams Island base, we visited nearby Ft. Totten, a state historical site. After its military use, it became a boarding school for Native Americans. Other than chatting with the lady from Virginia who was the hostess for the on-site bed and breakfast, the unique thing I remember was the heart-shaped art made from braided hair. Kind of gross in my opinion, but apparently a thing people did to remember their loved ones.

Just down the road we drove through the WhiteHorse Hill National Game Preserve. We only saw a couple of bison and did not see any of the elk population. We did get a tremendous view of the area after climbing 191 steps to the overlook.


It was very windy
