Alaska's Arctic National Wildlife Refuge is a sensitive ecosystem that is unique to North America. Proposed oil and gas exploration/drilling on the Refuge would irreparably damage this pristine area, and the amount of oil will last only a few years. Support which is standing up against these environmental threats.


Stirling Mining is preparing to poison both the groundwater and the river water in the Rock Creek-Lower Clark Fork River basin in western Montana via environmentally-sloppy mining activities. Their proposed mine will be dug underneath the Cabinet Mountains Wilderness Area. Help the Clark Fork-Pend Oreille Coalition stop Stirling Mining. Mining and Rock Creek don't mix.

MONTANA'S NATIVE PEOPLES

The land that the Hell Creek Formation is part of was once the home of various First Nations. Here are some sites worth visiting:
Piegan (Blackfeet) bison-hunting point. From my limited knowledge of Northern Great Plains point types, I estimate that this style is closest in morphology to Strong's (1935:, Fig. 7) SCa2 chipped point classification. The composition of the point is gray chalcedony with white mottling. Tip broken. Preserved length = 34 mm.
