Disclaimer Hiking, hill-walking, rock-scrambling and mountain climbing are potentially hazardous activities particularly in the Dakotas with their extreme low temperatures, climb exposures, and quick weather changes. The SOTA Management Team, the W0D-Dakotas Association and their participants do not accept responsibility for any death or injury resulting from participation in SOTA. The inclusion of a summit in this Reference Manual does not indicate that it is safe, legal, or even possible to climb the summit. The Summit Reference data is not guaranteed to be accurate and no reliance should be placed upon it. Any hiker must be sure to check applicable local, state, and federal laws to be sure that a hike or climb up any of the mountains listed in this manual is legal and safe. Some summits may reside in private hands, and all hikers must respect private property rights. As a particular caution to European hikers, please note that “Every Man’s Right” does not exist in the United States and permission to cross private lands must be expressly granted and cannot be assumed. Some Dakota summits may be technically demanding and may require traditional climbing experience, rope climbing skills, and competent knowledge of route selection and the associated risks. Technical climbing competency is a requirement for many peaks as many routes are technically graded 5.10 or greater based on the Yosemite Decimal System. Many routes offer poor protection with long runouts where a fall could result in serious injury or death. Proper training, experience, and personal capability assessment is required. Skills-based training is readily available from many world-recognized climbing groups including the Mazamas and the Seattle Mountaineers. Do not become a statistic!

Invaluable assistance was received from Dennis, WA2USA, who helped develop the proper spreadsheet formats and was there every step of the way Also thanks to Guy, N7UN, and Steve, WG0AT for their support, as well as Jim, G0CQK, who helped initiate this Association. Special thanks go to John Kirk (Lists of John), whose data were crucial in developing this information. 1.1 Program derivation W0D-Dakotas SOTA is an extension of similar programs already active in other countries. Summit qualification for inclusion in the SOTA Program is based on the relative height of summits compared to their surroundings based on summit prominence. Qualification of summits for inclusion in the W0D Dakotas Association uses the P100 criteria and has been approved by the SOTA Management Team (MT). Summits must have a minimum of 100 meters (328 feet) of vertical rise from the surrounding saddle in order to qualify. This vertical separation from surrounding terrain is the basis of the definition of geographic prominence, which Wikipedia has an excellent description. Summit scoring is based on a given summit’s height above sea level (ASL). The W0D-Dakotas SOTA Association encompasses both North Dakota and South Dakota and has 236 SOTA summits that meet the prominence criteria based on data collected by the USGS (U.S. Geologic Survey) national surveys. See this link for more detail about the USGS survey processes. In particular, the USGS maintains a huge (80+ gigabytes) database of National Elevation Data (“NED”) for all surveyed peaks in the USA. The W0D-Dakotas SOTA dataset was derived from this USGS NED database. This database contains both named and un-named mountains (“numbered”) which also meet the prominence requirements of SOTA. The goal of this ARM is to develop a list of qualifying summits that are relatively accessible, climbable, and have a history of ascent. Therefore the “un-named” mountains have been included in this ARM. There are “un-named” or “numbered” peaks in North and South Dakota and named peaks. Participants in the W0D-Dakotas SOTA program must meet the qualifications stated in the SOTA General Rules, and must participate in accordance with these rules. In cases where information in this reference is in conflict with the General Rules, the General Rules shall take precedence. Full text of the SOTA General Rules can be found here. 1.2 General information The W0D-Dakotas SOTA Association includes summits within the state boundaries of both North Dakota and South Dakota.

The principal objectives of the management plan are to ensure that the black-tailed prairie dog is maintained in its role as a keystone species in the mixed-grass prairie ecosystem on the North Unit, while providing strategies to effectively manage instances of prairie dog encroachment onto adjacent private lands. The plan also seeks to manage the North Unit’s prairie dog populations to sustain numbers sufficient to survive unpredictable events that may cause high mortality, such as sylvatic plague, while at the same time allowing park managers to meet management goals for other North Unit resources. Primary considerations in developing the plan include conservation of the park’s natural processes and conditions, identification of effective tools for prairie dog management, implementing strategies to deal with prairie dog encroachment onto adjacent private lands, and protection of human health and safety.

  • Encounters with the Early Highpointers by Charles
    SOME CLOSE (AND NOT SO CLOSE) ENCOUNTERS WITH THE EARLY HIGHPOINTERS BY CHARLES FERIS Many stories can be told of how we got our first inspiration to pursue this hobby of ours, this highpointing. We’ve been inspired in a hundred ways; mine arose during a period of boredom, while in college. Seeking something other than study, I took out a Rand McNally road atlas, and looked at a map of my native state of Illinois, noting the little red dot in the northwest corner of the state. Wow, something neat to do. So while the other kids were off to Florida, off to Charles Mound I went during spring break 1961. Then it hit me; I had already done Mt. Whitney the year before, so why not do all the states. Now I was really excited. The next few years saw me collecting 13 more highpoints in the Midwest and southeast. I went my merry way, never realizing that others might be crazy enough to be pursuing the very same project. At this point I was not aware of the tiny fraternity of early highpointers who were already years before me. I had no idea of the remarkable people I was about to meet. Then in August 1965 a Sierra Club friend of mine in Chicago told me about C. Rowland Stebbins. I had found a kindred soul, one who had already completed the 48. I phoned him immediately. Soon my wife and I were off on the four hour drive to Lansing, Michigan. We arrived to an expansive mansion on Moore’s River Drive atop a bluff overlooking the Grand River.

  • The Cretaceous-Tertiary Boundary Interval in Badlands National Park, South Dakota
    The Cretaceous-Tertiary Boundary Interval in Badlands National Park, South Dakota Philip W. Stoffer1 Paula Messina John A. Chamberlain, Jr. Dennis O. Terry, Jr. U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 01-56 2001 U.S. DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR Gale A. Norton, Secretary U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY Charles G. Groat, Director The Cretaceous/Tertiary (K-T) boundary study interval at the Rainbow Colors Overlook along Badlands Loop Road, North Unit of Badlands National Park. This report is preliminary and has not been reviewed for conformity with U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) editorial standards or with the North American Stratigraphic Code. Any use of trade, firm, or product names is for descriptive purposes only and does not imply endorsement by the U.S. Government. 1345 Middlefield Road, Menlo Park, CA 94025 http://geopubs.wr.usgs.gov/open-file/of01-056/ ABSTRACT A marine K-T boundary interval has been identified throughout the Badlands National Park region of South Dakota. Data from marine sediments suggest that deposits from two asteroid impacts (one close, one far away) may be preserved in the Badlands. These impact- generated deposits may represent late Maestrichtian events or possibly the terminal K-T event. Interpretation is supported by paleontological correlation, sequence stratigraphy, magnetostratigraphy, and strontium isotope geochronology. This research is founded on nearly a decade of NPS approved field work in Badlands National Park and a foundation of previously published data and interpretations. The K-T boundary occurs within
