I captured this from a Christan program. I don’t usually have high regards for religious groups but I think this program and this segment shows some respect for native cultures and what they are still dealing with. And is impartial.

Bear Butte
CA summit hikes: Black Butte, with view of Mt Shasta
A hike of the 2.5 mile path to the summit of Black Butte, with views of Mount Shasta as seen from Black Butte’s summit.
View of Mount Shasta was slightly cloud obscured in this film.
Black Butte in CA is not a mountain as the one by same name in Oregon, but is a cluster of lava domes formed from the eruption of Mount Shasta and Shastina about 9-10,000 years ago. It is located in Siskiyou County, California, with the towns of Mt. Shasta and Weed below. The panoramic view at the top makes the hike worthwhile, with a spectacular view of Mount Shasta a few miles to the northeast.
The film of the path is shaky because the camcorder was attached to my waistbelt.
Info:
Altitude: 6,334 ft
Class: 2 – mildly steep and a very rocky path
Trail Length: 2.5 miles
Elevation Gain: 1,900 ft
Lat: 41.36700(degrees)North
Lon: 122.347(degrees) West
It is not advised to attempt this hike in the winter. Be advised that thunderstorms can approach this area with little warning. Strong ankles, with supportive footwear are a must because of small loose rock covering parts of the path. Watch for snakes. If you are not an experienced hiker, or are afraid of heights, don’t consider this trip… there are occasional steep drops on one side of the path.

Independent Lens | BUTTE AMERICA | Film Clip #3 | PBS
http://www.pbs.org/independentlens/butte-america “Every night I prayed that I’d get killed instead of gettin’ crippled.”
You see the world differently when you work underground. That made Butte, Montana different right from the start as immigrants came from around the world to work the mines. But what they blasted out of the 10,000 miles of tunnels was more than just copper. It was the rise of unions and multinational corporations, and the seeds of the current debate over the environment.
BUTTE, AMERICA premieres Tuesday, October 20 on Independent Lens, a weekly series airing on PBS. Hosted by Maggie Gyllenhaal, the acclaimed series showcases powerful and innovative independent films. Presented by ITVS, Independent Lens is broadcast on PBS stations nationwide.

Protect Bear Butte!
Bear Butte is a sacred mountain located eight miles east of Sturgis, South Dakota. It is registered as a National Historical Landmark. Bear Butte is sacred to the Plains Tribes who continue to travel to the mountain each summer to pray and hold their annual ceremonies. Instead of praying in peace, traditional people are forced to pray with loud music from bars, motorcycle noise, flashing strobe lights over the mountain, and intoxicated campers nearby.
