On the
shores of Lake Yankton, Chief White Crane is in close proximity to the Missouri
River and Gavins Point Dam. The park was named after Chief White Crane who met
with Lewis and Clark in this area in 1804. The park has an abundance of large,
mature cottonwood trees that provide excellent shade for the campground and
serve as a place for bald eagles to roost during the winter. Chief White
