Spearfish and Belle Fourche, SD

Today we visited the fish hatchery in Spearfish, SD.. There were HUGE trout in an under ground viewing area.
They used to transport fish to plant in rivers and lakes around the nation in fish train cars...from 1874- 1927.. there were 2 cars specially built.. they transported 73 billion trout ..

These statues commemorate the men planting the fish in rivers and streams around the country.


In Belle Fourche, SD there is a spot marked to show the geographic center of the nations.. It used to be in Kansas until 1959 when Hawaii and Alaska were admitted into the nation...
