The Black Hills (Pahá Sápa in Lakota, Mo'ohta-vo'honáaeva in Cheyenne) are a small, isolated mountain range rising from the Great
Plains of North America in western South Dakota and extending into Wyoming, USA. Set off from the main body of the Rocky Mountains,
the region is something of a geological anomaly—accurately described as an "island of trees in a sea of grass". The Black Hills encompass
the Black Hills National Forest and are home to the tallest peaks of continental North America east of the Rockies.
The name "Black Hills" is a translation of the Lakota Pahá Sápa. The hills were so-called because
of their dark appearance from a distance, as they were covered in trees.
Native Americans have a long history in the Black Hills. After conquering the Cheyenne in 1776, the Lakota took over the
territory of the Black Hills, which became central to their culture. When European Americans discovered gold there in 1874,
as a result of George Armstrong Custer's Black Hills Expedition, erstwhile miners swept into the area in a gold rush; the
US government re-assigned the Lakota, against their wishes, to other reservations in western South Dakota. Unlike the
rest of the Dakotas, the Black Hills were settled by European Americans primarily from population centers to the west and
south of the region, as miners flocked there from earlier gold boom locations in Colorado and Montana.
In many ways, the Black Hills functions as a very spread-out urban area with a population (not counting tourists) of 250,000.
In addition to Rapid City, other important Black Hills cities and towns include:
Belle Fourche, a ranching town
Spearfish, home of Black Hills State University
Deadwood, a historic and well-preserved gambling mecca
Lead, home of the now-closed Homestake Mine (gold)
Keystone, outside Mount Rushmore
Hill City, a timber and tourism town in the center of the Hills
Custer, a mining and tourism town and headquarters for Black Hills National Forest
Hot Springs, an old resort town in the southern Hills
Sturgis, originally a military town (Fort Meade, now a VA center, is located just to the east,
Now famous for one of the largest motorcycle rallies in the world)
Newcastle, center of the Black Hills petroleum production and refining.
