Joseph heads to Southeast Montana to Custer Country for an historic encounter with a legend and a close encounter with the locals during the annual reenactments of Custer's Last Stand at the Battle of the Little Big Horn. History is a main attraction of Custer Country and finds it in the small towns and at Pompey's Pillar where the only physical evidence of Lewis and Clark's expedition remains. Arriving via the Yellowstone River William Clark scramble to the top he scrawled his name and the date -- July 25, 1806. Every year Custer bites the bullet in Hardin, Montana six miles from the Little Bighorn Battlefield. The yearly battle reenactment is part of the town's Little Big Horn Days celebration which includes parades, rodeos and 1876 Ball. The reenactments highlight the Native American story and relates the events that caused the massacre of Custer's men on July 25, 1876 and countless Indians in other encounters as part of the country's manifest destiny. Like the famous chief Red Cloud once said, "You made us may promises, you broke them all, except one. You said you would take our land and you took it." Nevertheless, the reenactment is a healing event. Custer Country is 36,500 miles big and Joseph rounds out up his "Last Stand" adventure with a visit to a working ranch when he heads out on horseback for a campfire dinner and a sampling of Cheyenne and Crow cultures.
