Good Earth State Park
Oct 14, 2013
Scott Korsten shared these photos from a hike yesterday in Good Earth State Park at Blood Run. The park southeast of Sioux Falls is South Dakota's newest state park and one of the oldest sites of long-term human habitation in the United States. Early occupants of the 600 acres of land were primarily Oneota Tradition Peoples, including Omaha, Ponca, Ioway and Otto. Naturalists are restoring the area to its original grasses and wild flowers.
