This trail is 4 miles long and might I add that it is very difficult to run uphill into 25mph winds!
Mom has been reading a lot of history on Billings and this trail is named after Chief Black Otter who was a chief of the Crow Indians, we found this info...
Chief Black Otter Trail follows the edge of the Rimrocks north of the city. Swords Park, the area along the Rimrocks from Billings Logan International Airport to Boothill Cemetery, includes the unmarked grave of Crow Indian Chief Black Otter, who was killed in a battle with the Sioux. Yellowstone Kelly, renowned army scout, explorer and frontiersman, also is buried along the route. While the road is difficult to traverse, some of the best views of Sacrifice Cliff can be had here.
(We are going to go check out Sacrifice Cliff sometime soon and I'll post the significance of that. But this starts the week of random Billings history!)
I then had to go to my yearly doctor visit (not my favorite thing to do). The doctor said I must be a runner because I have a slow and strong resting heartbeat. My mom and all her running is paying off!
And to end the day I went to my temperament test at doggie daycamp. My humans decided it would be good for me to go play once a week while they are working so I had to go in tonight to make sure I play well with others, which I do because I am awesome!
