While at a family wedding in Elk City, Oklahoma, we found a flyer for the Black Kettle National Park in Cheyenne, Oklahoma. Being from S.W.

This is a National park so we were prepared to use our Golden Ager cards but there is no charge. The museum is very well set up and the dioramas and displays are well done. The museum is located just above the actual site of the massacre on the Washita River and has a walking trail that lets you go down close to the site.

Few of the original prairie grasslands remain. Cattle grazing and development has destroyed most of the USA's original prairies. You can get an idea of what they must have looked like in their original glory at the Black Kettle National Grassland, at Hwy. 47 and Hwy. 47A, near Cheyenne, OK, around the monument to the Battle of the Washita, between Custer's forces and the local Cheyenne Indians. The park rangers at the visitors' center are very helpful and knowledgeable. This is a beautiful, quiet, place, and an unforgettable must-see.
