Ep. 210: Little Bighorn Battlefield | Custer's Last Stand Bridger Montana RV Travel Camping

[@bradansworld]

The battlefield, canyon, and state park are unbelievably beautiful!

[@GrandAdventure]

Very true Sammy. It was a beautiful and deeply moving visit.

[@OnTheMewve]

Thanks for sharing this campsite and area. As I said in the other comment, we are working on planning a trip through Montana next summer ,and using the atlas , found the Bighorn Canyon area Interesting. Thanks for sharing this city campsite. We are putting it on our list. 😀~Wilson and Kelli

[@GrandAdventure]

Thank you, Wilson & Kelli, and thanks for watching! Here's wishing you a wonderful trip next season.

[@catman8670]

The first peoples were fascinating to me, free and happy for thousands of years

[@GrandAdventure]

Funny that you say that, for I've just spent this evening exploring some of the history on the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation. Happy and free, though, may be a stretch as many (especially the Sioux) spent centuries stealing other tribes' land, capturing/kidnapping and enslaving members of other tribes, etc. That's why the Crow fought alongside Custer's men at Little Bighorn.

[@lizgilliland5074]

I love to stay in small towns like this. Little Big horn is on my bucket list also.

[@GrandAdventure]

We really enjoyed the experience all the way around, Liz.

[@daviscrt]

When I see places like that, I try to put myself back in time and try to put myself in their situation. Happy to be here where I'm at. Thanks Don

[@GrandAdventure]

While there are certain things about simpler, earlier times that seem inviting to us, your point is well taken as well, Don.

[@jeroldkiekhafer7141]

I love your historical content in your wonderful videos. I always look forward to seeing your next video. Thank you for the great work you do.

[@GrandAdventure]

Thank you Jerold!

[@gorrdd]

Thanks Marc... I really liked that little town of Bridger. What a great place you found to campout on for such a reasonable rate. Definitely worth a second week... not crowded but uniquely positioned right in town. Fantastic! As always, your history lesson was great. Great adventures for sure. I really appreciated the first nations you reviewed and specifically the Chief of the Crow nation. That guy had a good heart to donate the land for everyone to enjoy. Gord

[@GrandAdventure]

Thanks Gord as always! Yep, I was very impressed with what I learned about the man. I especially loved his quote, "Education is your most powerful weapon. With education, you are the white man's equal; without education, you are his victim, and so shall remain all your lives."

[@gorrdd]

@@GrandAdventure Exactly... but when it comes to education, STREET SMARTS trumps them all (no pun intended). Even education can be used as a control tool in the wrong hands, rather than as an information and instruction tool. Never so true, as today... Gord

[@neethadesilva5747]

Thank you for a beautiful presentation. The Crow Fair is on the third week of August. Once you het to Red Lodge you will never want to leave Montana

[@GrandAdventure]

Yep, we heard about the Crow Fair, we'd love to see that. I first visited Red Lodge to ski 20 years ago, and visited in summer for the first time 3 years ago. In next week's episode we'll explore Red Lodge, Bearcreek, Beartooth Highway, Chief Joseph Highway, East Rosebud Lake and more.

[@whitleysinthewild7877]

Wow! Great video and education on the Crow. I enjoyed every min. We will look to camp there,very nice. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for this video! I enjoyed it a lot. I drive freight around the country and like stopping in little towns to grab a burger and walk around a bit during my break. Custer, MT has a little place with great burgers I like to stop at. I'll try Bridger next time I go through. Thanks again for making these

[@DrJohn493]

Another great travelogue video of some locations that are a bit off the beaten path, especially the Little Big Horn National Monument and Bridger. You do a wonderful job describing the history of the locations you visit. Keep it up! I first saw the Little Big Horn battlefield in 1969 and only much later did I fully come to understand the Native American experience from their point of view. Have to admit many of the places you feature are places I've tended to blow through on the way to somewhere else. I got to learn to slow down and take in the history more. Thanks for reminding me of that! Edit: Why isn't the Travel Channel people calling you!? And bring on the Bear Tooth!

[@michaeltablet8577]

Great video as always! Excellent video, and history and I love the background music on your videos. Excellent all the way!

I got to spend a few hours at Little Bighorn a bunch of years ago. There's nothing like being on site to appreciate what took place at these historic locations. The actual conflicts were nothing like what I thought I knew from Hollywood recreations. Thanks for sharing what you learned about the area.

[@DownsizingMakesCents]

Wow that meadow was packed, lots of weekenders, Bridger looks like a cool little town, we love little towns like that which are still thriving. The town was smart to put those site in to help bring tourists and money. Awesome history about little big horn, my previous knowledge was front the movie, little big Man, haha. Larry

[@GrandAdventure]

Glad that you enjoyed it Larry! Patricia is particularly attracted to small town city parks when we need hookups, and I can't say that I disagree with her. Many in the Great Plains are even free of charge, just to get people to stop in town and spend a little money.

Nice video Marc. Jo-Ann and I have been to the Little Bighorn Battlefield several times. When I rode with the Patriot Guard Riders we had the honor of escorting a soldiers remains to the Military cemetery at Little Bighorn Battlefield.

[@GrandAdventure]

That's truly an honor, JT. Thanks for sharing your experience!

[@rickskidmore3075]

Another awesome historical video. Thank you. We stopped at Little Big Horn in 2003 on our way to AK while I was active duty AF, but we got there near closing and only saw the field from the parking lot. So we look forward to revisiting.

[@GrandAdventure]

Thanks Rick! Definitely put it on your return list, and thank you for your service.

[@laughingram7287]

Hi Marc, Saw this last week and just getting around to giving you my two cents. You got more out of the history than I did when I was there. So naturally I learned something. Plenty of empty space to fill between my ears. Thanks! Little town of Bridget looked like a pretty cool place to stay. I wonder how often it gets full and when it does. Thanks for sharing.. Ram 👍🏼👍🏽

[@GrandAdventure]

Glad that we could add to your visit, Ram! Most of our two weeks there, only one or two other RVs were in the park. Over the 4th weekend, though, one night was full (6 rigs).

[@mickster1780]

Cool giving the story about the Crow tribe. I have a friend who lives on the reservation. A great lesson to be learned for all of us. Thanks for the share. We just were up on Beartooth Pass on June 30th. Amazing sights!

[@GrandAdventure]

Glad that you enjoyed it, thanks for that. And yes, Beartooth Pass is indeed amazing. We'll be sharing that in this coming Wednesday's episode. We just missed you by a few days, for we filmed that segment of this week's epsiode on July 3.

[@CompetaJohn]

Another excellent video Marc. Bridger looked like a great place plus all that fascinating history at the battlefield. Even kids growing up in the UK back in the day knew the story of Custer, although probably a little biased to one side! Looking forward to your next one. Hope you are keeping cool.

[@ExtremeRVing]

I may have commented about this video on one of your other ones, but the whole Montana area where you two were was just beautiful. It's a state we've not really been to yet, but have plans so that we can explore Glacier National Park!

[@GrandAdventure]

Montana is a gorgeous state, and so topographically diverse. When you go to Glacier, just remember to not make the same mistake most RV travelers make, which is the same mistake that they make in Wyoming and Utah, too. They focus on the marquee destination (Glacier in Montana, Yellowstone/Grand Teton in Wyoming, the Mighty Five National parks in Utah) and just drive through the rest of the state to get there. Meanwhile there's a "whole rest of the state" that they miss, or don't take the time to explore -- and which often contains sights that are the equal or sometimes even exceed those of the destination that they're so focused on reaching, and are typically far less crowded, too.

[@ExtremeRVing]

@@GrandAdventure Amen to this, it's the very reason we started our motto #leaveordinarybehind We stayed a summer in Niagara Falls, NY and saw all the things AROUND the Falls. We were amazed at how many people would drive through 5 states to come there, stay three days, and just leave after seeing the Falls. Great tips about viewing all the OTHER things a state has to offer, we agree 100%

[@jimjackson1087]

When Custer arrived at the Little Big Horn from North Dakota, he sent out two scouts. They came back an hour or so later. "We have some good news, and some bad news for you, General." " What's the bad news?" " It looks like every Indian in the world is right over that hill in warpaint. " " What's the good news?" "I don't think we are going back to North Dakota!"

[@mattmc5069]

One question I have is how do they know excact spots where men fell? I'm not questioning them just wondering.

[@GrandAdventure]

As I understand it, they documented it when reinforcements arrived and discovered the carnage.

[@scenicdriveways6708]

Marc, If you paddle the Bighorn Canyon , put in at Horseshoe Bend on the Wyoming side. Plenty of camping there with potable water and dump station, and it's right at the mouth of the canyon. From there you could paddle all the way through the canyon to Barrys Landing. ( Long day of paddling ) You can also opt for the guided boat tour. However, in years of serious drought I have seen the water at Horseshoe Bend dried up until there was only mud there. In which case you have to camp at Barrys Landing. Late spring is the best time to go, at least that's when I liked it most. The Bighorn Canyon was always one of my favorite places to go. Loved taking pictures of the wild Mustangs and Bighorn Sheep. www.nps.gov/bica/planyourvisit/upload/Waterway-Trail-Guide.pdf

[@GrandAdventure]

Thanks for the tips John! One day we'll get back there to enjoy Bighorn Canyon as a destination unto itself.

[@scenicdriveways6708]

@@GrandAdventure We've been to both sides ( The Fort Smith, Montana side , and the Wyoming Side near Lovell, WY ). I prefer to start at the Wyoming side because you see a lot more. Driving through you will see Wild Mustang Horses and Wild Bighorn Sheep. And the canyon itself is absolutely breathtaking!

[@lancetobacco8138]

Going to Pryor Gap into the Pryor mountains on the Crow Indian Reservation you know you're trespassing right or did you ask the landowners if it was okay to be on their land I am a Crow Indian from the crow reservation

[@GrandAdventure]

Lance, trespass requires a knowing intent to violate someone's property rights: law.justia.com/codes/montana/2017/title-45/chapter-6/part-2/section-45-6-203/ We found Prior Gap Road while poring over USGS topographic maps. There were no signs posting the land, and had there been any we would have respected them, just as we did when we found tribal postings on Grapevine Road heading west out of Fort Smith.

Is there any hope for heat to fade? On july 20th. I have a decision to make of high tailing it back to florida from colorado or to go back to utah. It sucks to no end being so close and only doing half the itinerary due to weather. Having offroaded out the wazoo i planned to boomerang back to wedge, goblin valley, capitol reef, escalante, bryce, page and kanab and Grand Canyon. But if it stays hot as hell… no way can i hike those spots. Grrr

[@GrandAdventure]

It's definitely frustrating us as well this season, MTL. These temps are crazy. While we were in Bridger the normal highs are in the upper 70s to around 80, so they're running about 20 degrees above normal. That high pressure ridge over the West Coast needs to break down.

"With education you are the white mans equal, without education you are his victim." So true, even today, the key is education.

True for everyone, Tom. And BTW there was a separate comment from you about the name of the Chief, but it's gone. I don't know if you deleted the comment or if it evaporated into the KZbin ether, but it was Chief Plenty Coups.

I have been looking at this area and was wondering where to camp. I saw this place on The Dyrt and was wondering ii it was a good spot. Thanks for the heads up. You were wise to bail on Colorado. It's way over crowded and over hyped. Everyone should go to Utah instead.

Glad that we were able to give you more insight on the campground, Doug. As for everyone going to Utah instead, we've got our own crowding issues over there. 😁

Noticed you skipped over why the Lakota left their reservations. It was because of the slaughter of the Buffalo that had taken place. Plus it was the only time waring tribes worker together against the settlers.
