Standing Rock Hill Historic Site
Barnes County
This is the Standing Rock Hill Historic Site, south of Kathryn and west of Enderlin, just up the hill from Little Yellowstone Park, right off Highway 46. It is also just a short drive from Jensen Cabin at Wadeson Park. Standing Rock Hill Historic Site consists of four Native American burial mounds, the largest of which is marked with the small standing rock shown below.
There is a fairly serious grade up a minimally maintained road to get to the parking lot at the top of the hill, but in dry conditions, you shouldn’t have any trouble in the typical car. Read more about it here.

Awesome…I had not heard of this site…thank you for sharing!!!
Will the lone tree picture be available as a print?
Sorry, we’re not doing prints anymore.
Do you have places for sale in south Dakota also.
We and our two children visited this site many times over the years. We have early 1980′s photos of them standing beside the rock. One of Gen Sibley’s 1863 campsites (Camp Weiser) is just a couple of miles due north of this site.
Anyone born in this country is a native American. Those are indian mounds.
