Hugh Glass Sculpture At a place near present-day Lemmon, South Dakota, the legendary Hugh Glass was attacked by a Grizzly Bear protecting her two cubs. Glass fought for his life using only a knife and his bare hands. By the time the bear was killed, Glass was terribly mauled and mangled. Fearing for their own safety, traveling partners Jim Bridger and John Fitzgerald collected Glass’s gun, knife, and other accouterments, and left him for dead near the banks of the Grand River. However, against all odds, Glass did not die. His 200-mile trek back to civilization was recounted far and wide among other frontiersmen, and even Native American tribes told tales about his brave journey. Today, you can step back nearly two centuries and walk on the site where history was made, where one man became a legend. Enjoy the amazing vistas this area has to offer as you stroll the banks of the Grand River and Shadehill Reservoir at Hugh Glass Park, 12 miles south of Lemmon. Then, include in your expedition the Grand River Museum in Lemmon, where you can encounter local artist John Lopez’s Hybrid Metal Art© sculpture of this historic grizzly attack. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54affb8fe4b0ebd0f7db9110/1420829396834-DRISOIJGS0H7CS37ZDFX/DSC04334.JPG What's Inside - Farmers Market Fun There are lots of fun things for kids to do at the farmers market held every Wednesday in the museum sculpture garden. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54affb8fe4b0ebd0f7db9110/1420826594626-8K9Y8HERMJOLKLP496HF/Triceratops+Cowboy1.jpg What's Inside - Triceratops Cowboy This sculpture greets visitors to the Grand River Museum on highway 12 in Lemmon, SD. The concept of a cowboy ridding a dinosaur fits in with the creation theme found through out the inside of the museum. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54affb8fe4b0ebd0f7db9110/1420869974105-240XLPN0QT3H0ZEN8Q7X/Pachycephalosaurus_skull.jpg What's Inside - Pachycephalosaurus A Pachycephalosaurus skull dug up on the Schmidt ranch dig is on display in the museum. Pachycephalosaurus was a dome-headed dinosaur. Its huge head housed an incredibly thick skull, a tiny brain, and large eyes. Its rounded skull was up to 10 inches thick (25 cm). Pachycephalosaurus grew to be about 15 feet long (4.6 m) and may have weighed roughly 950 pounds (430 kg). Pachycephalosaurus probably had a good sense of smell. It had bumpy knobs on its snout and along the rear of its skull. This plant-eater had short forelimbs and a stiff tail (which had a distinctive mesh of interwoven tendons surrounding its rear portion). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54affb8fe4b0ebd0f7db9110/1420907016065-5BQUJVWJCPPKOLH8560C/203.jpg What's Inside - Welcome You will be greeted by the museum director Phyllis Schmidt when you visit the Grand River Museum (GRM). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54affb8fe4b0ebd0f7db9110/1420823659638-RO48OAWXB1J7DMJBEMD8/IMG_0436.jpg What's Inside - The Grand River The Grand River runs threw the Schmidt ranch almost 45 miles south east of Lemmon, South Dakota. 90 percent of the fossils in the museum come off the Schmidt ranch. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54affb8fe4b0ebd0f7db9110/1420823848258-IW08Y8FAMTD0EBI26YV8/Grand+River+Museum+Rain+in+the+Face.jpg What's Inside - Rain in the Face Born in the dakota territory near the forks of the Cheyenne River about 1835, Rain-in-the-Face was from the Hunkpapa band within the Lakota nation. His name may have been a result of a fight when he was a boy in which his face was splattered like rain with his Cheyenne adversary's blood. Late in his life, the chief related that the name was reinforced by an incident when he was a young man where he was in a battle in a heavy rainstorm with a band of Gros Ventres. At the end of the lengthy combat, his face was streaked with war paint. http://www.thegrandrivermuseum.com/blog daily 0.75 2015-01-09 http://www.thegrandrivermuseum.com/blog/2015/1/9/creation-on-the-grand monthly 0.5 2015-01-09 http://www.thegrandrivermuseum.com/membership daily 0.75 2015-01-09 http://www.thegrandrivermuseum.com/new-page-1 daily 0.75 2017-01-26
