Sioux Nation Teepees

The Sioux Nation, which consisted of the Lakota, Western Dakota, and Eastern Dakota, were one of the largest groups of Native Americans in the Wild West. Imagine being a person coming from the East and seeing hundreds of teepees, which you had never seen before, dotting the landscape like these are.

Gold Rush Towns

The Gold Rush brought people from all over the world to the west, and because of the influx of miners, towns began popping up all over the place. The town seen here was Deadwood, which was in Dakota Territory, and turned into a thriving Western city. Most of these towns fell into disrepair and became ghost towns after the Gold Rush, but Deadwood still remains, today.
