"From the beginning of time, the Sweet Grass Hills have been a source of spiritual sustenance to the Native Americans of the Northern Great Plains. The Gros Ventre, Blackfeet, Salish, Kootenai, Assiniboine, and the Plains Cree have significant oral, traditional, and ceremonial history in northern Montana's Sweet Grass Hills, a sacred site...where we communicate with the spirit world through fasting and praying and vision questing."-John Sunchild, Chairman, Chippewa Cree Tribal Business Committee, 1993.
Welcome to the Sweet Grass Hills! This is an MSU-Northern Honor's 290 project supported by the members of The Sweet Grass Hills Protection Association (click here) to learn more about the issues, cultures, events, news, history, environment and what can be done.
# Please note that most of the land surrounding the Sweet Grass Hills is privately owned. Please respect the rights of these family and friends, join us at scheduled events while you are in our area.--Ruth Burleigh
