Tepee Sunset, U.S. Plains, 1997

Photograph by Sam Abell

"Twilight of a tradition: Sunset lingers on an annual encampment of Blood Indians, relatives of the Blackfeet. While the Lewis and Clark expedition opened the West to white settlement, it spelled the eventual decline of the native cultures as they had long existed in their homeland."

—From the National Geographic book Lewis & Clark: Voyage of Discovery, 1998
