  • Typical of other historical places in the area. An information sign and several plaques to tell of the struggles of the protection of the Bozeman Trail in the late 1800s.

  • It's a bit hard to find, but once you do, it's very interesting wild west history. good place to let the littles run around and get their wiggles out.

  • A neat little monument that tells you the story about the Wagon Box fight that happened on August 2, 1867.
  • Excellent. On the original Bozeman trail. Watch out for rattle snakes!
  • If your a fan of history you have to stop in and check this place out!
  • Amazing. To see where history was made, it was great. A bit of a drive, but if you love western history, you've got to see this.
  • The road signage to find this location is pretty good. The roads were in good condition. When I got there a little after 10 a.m., I had the place to myself. There are a series of markers explaining various aspects of the battle, and several wooden poles with 2 viewing tubes in them to see more distant landmarks, and the tubes are placed at adult and child heights. There is a shelter house with a picnic table, and a restroom facility beside the parking area. All in all, this was a nice place to visit.
