A very high altitude rock wall
bordering a road less traveled,
overlooking an alpine meadow and timber blow-down,
giving color and grace to a sacred place:
the Bighorn Medicine Wheel . . .
a rock garden for the spirit.
It was a very moving experience to hear a native American man chanting prayers there while viewing a state-of-the-art communications structure in the near distance.

Amazing - that's one state I;ve never been. And never imagined such a place of importance. Thanks for sharing this.
Fantastic, like you said hearing the natives chanting prayers can be moving. I would imagine its euphoric for the feeling of just being there and being in the atmosphere of land and tradition that goes back way long ago. Quite an experience, I wish I could be there.

David and Ken, thanks to you both for your comments --- it's a very inspiring place.
Only wish we'd had a clear blue sky that day; wildfires in the area created a hazy overcast...
