We visited the National Monument yesterday. This is the location where Lt. Col. George Armstrong Custer and more than 260 soldiers met defeat at the hands of several thousand Lakota and Cheyenne warriors.
A stone memorial dedicated to the over 200 soldiers and 100 indians who were killed in the 1876 battle of Little Bighorn sits at the top of what is now call Last Stand Hill.
They have some beautiful artwork at the memorial site.
Inside of the visitor's center is a very colorful painting illustrating the Battle of Little Bighorn.
A hill where the battle took place overlooks the Little Bighorn river.
