Geocache Description:


(1806-1880) - Suck-tum-mah-kway was a Native American trapper for the American Fur Company, a scout and guide, and interpreter who was fluent in English, and several European and Native American languages. After working as a scout, he settled among his people in the village of Beaverstown in Indian Territory, where they had been removed.  He is credited with establishing the California and Chisholm trails. Black Beaver died at his home on May 8, 1880, and was buried on his ranch. In 1976 his grave was moved to Fort Sill. His former ranch site has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places. In addition, he was the first inductee in the American Indian Hall of Fame in Anadarko, Oklahoma, which is located on part of his former ranch lands.
