This 2007 photo provided by South Dakota Magazine shows Reynolds Prairie in the Black Hills of South Dakota. Nearly 2,000 acres of the ranch, which encompasses a sacred site known as Pe Sla to a band of Native American tribes that once lived in the Black Hills, is going up for auction on Aug. 25, 2012.

FILE - In this Oct. 14, 2011, file photo Eric Robert appears during a hearing in Sioux Falls, S.D. Robert pleaded guilty to killing Ron Johnson during a botched prison escape at the South Dakota State Penitentiary and asked to be put to death. A judge determined in October that the crime merited the death sentence, and Robert was scheduled for execution the week of May 13 but the state Supreme Court postponed the date in February to allow more time for a mandatory review to make sure the death penalty was proper, even though Robert hadn't appealed the conviction or sentence. The review could take up to two years. (AP Photo/Argus Leader, Emily Spartz, File)
