The Blackfoot Tribe at Glacier National Park
This photo from 1913 is called “The Eagle,” and shows Blackfoot tribesmen keeping a watchful eye over Glacier National Park. The nomadic Blackfoot tribe lived in the Great Lakes area before conquering territories like the regions now known as Yellowstone National Park, Glacier National Park and even Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. In 1895, Chief White Calf sold 800,000 acres of land as well as the area containing Chief Mountain for $1.5 million but only on the condition that the Blackfoot tribe were not pushed off the land and could continue to hunt freely.
