This spectacular ceremonial blast lights up the mountain with incredible fireballs and specially designed pyrotechnical features. One of two annual night blasts, the June blast is both a celebration of the birthday of the late Mrs. Korczak (Ruth) Ziolkowski and it also commemorates the anniversary of the Battle of the Little Big Horn in 1876.
