Sturgis is located in South Dakota and the region is steeped in Native American and pioneer culture of the mid to late 1800s.
It seemed fitting to render SBCo's \" Skully\" mascot in rustic attire, I also added a wagon hauling some kegs of beer, and in the distant background I added a local landmark, Bear Butte.
\"The mountain is sacred to many American Indian tribes who come here to hold religious ceremonies. Artifacts dating back 10,000 years have been found near Bear Butte. In more recent times, however, the Cheyenne and Lakota people have maintained a spiritual tie to this mountain. Notable leaders including Red Cloud, Crazy Horse and Sitting Bull have all visited Bear Butte.\"
