This was originally a micro hidden and the 1st cache placed within the City of Timber Lake. Some kids keep finding it and taking it so now lets make it a photo cache. Take a picture in front of the sculpture and enjoy the area while you are there. See a bit of the Old West, examine fossils close up, or puzzle over the mystery object, the “Iron Hands” — with free admission at the Timber Lake and Area Museum, just North of the cache at N45 25.774' W101 04.420'.
Fossils are part of the reason Timber Lake has a museum. A collection of ammonites found and donated by the late Helen Ross was one of the museum’s first permanent exhibits. Experts say it is one of the finest collections of ammonites in the world.
The Warrior Collection, a complete set of traditional Lakota clothing worn by Joseph and Louise Warrior of White Horse, is well-displayed so viewers can see every detail.
The L.C. Lippert Collection is made up of early reservation-era Indian items from the Standing Rock Reservation, where Lippert was agency superintendent.
The museum is regularly open Monday through Friday, and other times by appointment. (Call 605-865-3553 or 605-865-3546).
The museum is air-conditioned, handicapped accessible and has a gift shop specializing in local and regional books and art.
Don't forget to sign their guestbook while you are there also!
