sacred ground

Friday after we took the stroll around the ghost town we headed down the road to the battleground of the big hole. It was a bloody battle between the Nez Perce and the us soldiers in the big hole valley. It was and awe inspiring feeling walking down on the prairie next to the Big Hole River. Seeing the mountain the troops crawled down in the night waiting for dawn. Where the warriors confiscated the howitzer gun, and where the decedents of Chief Joseph, Looking Glass and several others have erected tepee skeletons in memorial.
