This looks like a house ... it's not ... it's a playhouse that matches the main house ... notice the greenish blue tube from the upper "floor" to the ground ... that's a slide. The whole thing is maybe 20 foot tall.

More about Siksikaitsitapi Medicine Wheel

excerpt from the linked web page from Atlas Obscura:

STAND AT THIS MEDICINE WHEEL, and you’ll see sweeping views of prairieland interrupted by the Calgary skyline looming in the distance. The monument is a peaceful spot meant to make visitors stop and take a moment to appreciate their surroundings and the human history tied to the land.

Members of the Blood Tribe built the medicine wheel in 2015 as part of an annual Blackfoot Confederacy conference. The wheel takes the shape of the Siksikaitsitapi logo, which represents the Blood, Siksika, and Northern and Southern Peigan tribes, the four tribes that form the confederation.

Centuries ago, First Nations people used Nose Hill as a lookout spot to keep watch over the rolling land below. Old stone circles once used to hold down tipis are still scattered about the hillside.

This medicine wheel is a modern landmark, a tribute to the historical and spiritual connection between the people and the land. It also marks the hill as part of traditional Blackfoot territory. People are welcome to leave a small, appropriate offering at the center.
