Winter on Pine Ridge Reservation

This winter, just like many before, has brought some intensely cold temperatures. Wind chills often dip into single or negative digits and can be painful to withstand for even short periods of time. And did you know that most homes on the Rez rely on wood-burning stoves to stay warm? When firewood runs out or stoves become inoperable, many families have to resort to burning clothes, furniture, and other household items to make it through the bitter cold nights. Unfortunately, each year, there are several reports of death caused by hypothermia. This is why it is critically important that firewood distribution and stove repair continues - no one should be freezing in their own home.
