Bear Butte Cemetery

Bear Butte Cemetery is located on the far east end of Sherman Street in Sturgis. It rests on top of a beautiful pine-covered hillside overlooking the city. The cemetery has a lot of interesting tombstones and a lot of them date back to the 1800s. I found this to be a very interesting and beautiful cemetery.
