Little Big Horn Battlefield


The pix say it best... After seeing movies and reading books about Custer's Lasst Stand all our lives, we finally understand what happened and why.  The Park Rangers take a very nuanced view of the battle ... Everybody thought they were fighting for the right things.  In any case, we are convinced that the only way to really understand what happened in all four battles - yes there were four or maybe five different fights spread out over two hours, with Reno's defense lasting another two days - you have to drive the four miles along  Battle Ridge and see the ground.  Amazing... Worth a visit.
