The peak is sacred to many Native tribes who often hold religious ceremonies here, show some respect! History of Black Elk Peak Watch your children! Other than the fact that you are on top of a mountain in which they can fall off, I also noticed a lot of parents allowing their children (of all ages) to run freely interfering with others, messing with the fabric on the trees (which are prayer ties left behind by local Native Americans), and leaving trash.
