JUSTIN SHULL / Visiting Little Big Horn Battlefield

The Little Big Horn Battlefield has been memorialized as one of the last armed efforts of the Northern Plains Indians to preserve their way of life.  We visited this important field with the Porta Hedge on our way through Montana.

For those who need a history refresher, the Battle of Little Big Horn (also known as Custer’s Last Stand, or as the Battle of Greasy Grass) occurred between a Lakota-Cheyene force and the 7th Cavalry Regiment of the United States Army on June 25 and June 26 1876, during which five of the Seventh’s companies were annihilated, including George Armstrong Custer’s company and he as well.
