Little Big Horn Battleground Near Hardin, Montana

I will have to tell you that I found Little Big Horn Battleground disturbing and extremely sad.  Yes, the ranger talk was so very interesting, but it seems that there were many people to blame for all of the killing that went on that day.  Custer - yes;  Other military officers - yes;  Politicians in Washington DC - yes; Indians - yes.  The Indians were merciless, but they were trying to defend their way of life that was being taken from them.  The U. S. made promises to the Indians that it did not keep.  SAD, SAD, SAD!

BUT,I did find the land beautiful; the sky expansive; the hills and mountains gorgeous; and the river valley lovely!
 
Here are a few photos of what we saw while touring the battleground.
