Massacre Wounded Knee South Dakota Chief Big Foot Sitting Bull Ghost Dancing Black Hills Music
Massacre of Wounded Knee
Wounded Knee, South Dakota
Dec. 29, 1890, Chief Big Foot,
with his Minneconjou and Hunkpapa
Sioux Band of 108 warriors,
250 women and children
were encamped on this Flat,
surrounded by the
U.S. 7th Cavalry (470 soldiers)
commanded by Col. Forsythe.
The Messiah Craze possessed
many Indians, who left the vicinity
of Ind. Agencies to Ghost Dance
during the summer and fall of 1890.
Unrest on the Pine Ridge Reservation
was partly due to the reduction of
beef rations by Congress, and to the
Ghost Dancing of Chiefs Sitting Bull,
Hump, Big Foot, Kicking Bear,
and Short Bull.
The Sioux were told by Kicking Bear
and Short Bull that by wearing
Ghost Shirts the ghost dancing
warriors would become immune
to the whiteman's bullets and could
openly defy the soldiers and
White settlers, and bring back
the old days of the big buffalo herds.
On Nov. 15, 1890, Indian Agent Royer
(Lakota Wakakpaj) at Pine Ridge
called for troops, and by Dec. 1, 1890,
several thousand U.S. Regulars were
assembled in this area of Dakota Territory.
On Dec. 15, 1890, Chief Sitting Bull
was killed by Lt. Bullhead of the
Standing Rock Indian Police.
Forty of Sitting Bull's braves escaped
from Grand River, and joined
Chief Big Foot's band on Deep Creek
to camp and Ghost Dance on the
south fork of the Cheyenne River.
Chief Big Foot was under close scrutiny
of Lt. Col. Sumner and this troops,
and on Dec. 23, 1890, they were
ordered to arrest Big Foot as a hostile.
However, the Big Foot band had already
silently slipped away from the
Cheyenne county, into the
Badlands, heading for Pine Ridge.
On Dec. 28, 1890, without a struggle,
Chief Big Foot surrendered to the
U.S. 7th Cavalry (Maj. Whitesides)
at the site marked by a sign five miles
north of here. The Band was then
escorted to Wounded Knee,
camping that night under guard.
Reinforcements of the U.S. 7th Cavalry
(including one company of
Indian Scouts) arrived at Wounded Knee
from Pine Ridge Agency the morning
of Dec. 29, 1890. Col. Forsythe
took command of a force of 470 men.
A battery of four Hotchkiss guns
was placed on the hill 400 feet west
of here, overlooking the
Indian encampment.
Big Foot's Band was encircled at
9:00 p.m. by a line of foot soldiers
and cavalry.
Chief Big Foot, sick with pneumonia,
lay at a warmed tent provided by
Col. Forsythe in the
center of the camp.
A white flag flew there, placed by
the Indians.
Directly in the rear of the
Indian Camp was a
dry draw, running east and west.
The Indians
were ordered to surrender
their arms before proceeding
to Pine Ridge.
A shot was fired,
and all hell broke loose.
The troops fired a deadly volley
into the Council warriors, killing
nearly half of them.
A bloody hand-to-hand struggle
followed, all the more desperate
since the Indians were armed mostly
with clubs, knives and revolvers.
The Hotchkiss guns fired 2-pound
explosive shells on the groups,
indiscriminately killing warriors, women,
children and their own
disarming soldiers.
Soldiers were killed by cross-fire
of their comrades in this
desperate engagement.
Surviving Indians stampeded in wild
disorder for the shelter of the
draw 200 feet to the south, escaping
west and east in the draw, and
north down Wounded Knee Creek.
Pursuit by the 7th Cavalry resulted
in the killing of more men, women
and children, causing the battle to be
referred to as the
Wounded Knee Massacre.
One hour later, 146 Indian, women
and children lay dead in the
Wounded Knee Creek valley.
The bodies of many were scattered
along a distance of two miles from
the scene of the encounter.
Twenty soldiers were killed on the field,
and sixteen later died of wounds.
Wounded soldiers and Indians
alike were taken to Pine Ridge Agency.
A blizzard came up. Four days later,
an Army detail gathered up the
Indian dead and buried them in a
common grave at the top of
the hill northwest of here.
A monument marks this grave.
Ghost Dancing ended with
this encounter.
The Wounded Knee battlefield
is the site of the last armed conflict
between the Sioux Indians
and the United States Army.

79th Sturgis Bike Rally-A Visit to Mount Rushmore
My first visit to Mt. Rushmore. It was awesome. To think that this could be carved out of the side of a mountain is just unbelievable. It is an attraction that I have wanted to see for years. I hope you like the mountain as much as I did but pictures really don't do it justice. As with everything seeing it in person is best. Sorry this video is short and incomplete. Going thru a learning curve right now!
Blood Run - The Pitted Boulder
The Oneota sites have something in common - pitted boulders. There's a lot of theories out there, what do you think is the real story!?

Wounded Knee Massacre
The Wounded Knee Massacre occurred on December 29, 1890, near Wounded Knee Creek (Lakota: Čhaŋkpé Ópi Wakpála) on the Lakota Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in the U.S. state of South Dakota. On the day before, a detachment of the U.S. 7th Cavalry Regiment commanded by Major Samuel M. Whitside intercepted Spotted Elk's band of Miniconjou Lakota and 38 Hunkpapa Lakota near Porcupine Butte and escorted them five miles westward (8 km) to Wounded Knee Creek, where they made camp.
The remainder of the 7th Cavalry Regiment arrived, led by Colonel James W. Forsyth and surrounded the encampment supported by four Hotchkiss guns.

Hey Guys,
Lori's husband is a Flatbed Trucking Owner Operator & sometimes Lori will join him out on the road. Lori decided that she would do reviews on the truck stops & restaurants along the way since she couldn't find a ton of information along the way. They have learned over time that not all Travel Center / Trucks Stops are equal and there are some that you want to avoid all together! In this video Lori is reviewing Wall's Drug Store in Wall, South Dakota. Lori figured that this could help a number of people whether it was a trucker, a family on a road trip or even a woman traveling on her own.

RV LIVING || WALL DRUG STORE SOUTH DAKOTA
All settled in to our boondocking spot just outside Badlands National Park, we head into Wall South Dakota for a little taste of roadside america. Click Show More ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️For More Info
*** In this video***
Wall Drug Store is one of America's most popular roadside attractions. While driving through multiple states the billboards start almost 300 miles away. This drug store has almost anything you can think of, cafe, clothing, supplies, boots, camping gear, magnets and anything that you would see at your typical tourist store.
After they abruptly closed their doors Melissa and I discuss what we thought about the experience.
The next morning Melissa wakes up nice and early to see an absolutely amazing sunrise.

Wall Drugs
In this episode of Cheap Family Travel ( Nick Regan, Maggie, and Kate stopped in at Wall Drug. In 1931, Ted and Dorothy Hustead bought the Wall DrugStore in Wall, South Dakota, on the edge of the Badlands National Park. Business was slow during the Great Depression, but Dorothy came up with an idea that would convince travelers heading west on I-90 that they should stop in Wall - Free Ice Water! Within hours, the drug store was packed with customers getting their free water, and that is how the legend of the Wall Drug Store began. Today, Wall drug is known as a South Dakota tourist attraction with great homemade doughnuts and restaurants, shops, and good family fun. Make sure you get your free ice water!
Now, all across the South Dakota landscape, you'll see hundreds of signs advertising free ice water and 5 cents for a cup of coffee. The Wall Drug Store grew over the years and now spans several blocks of Main Street in Wall. The cafe seats 530 people, and the drug mall includes a donut factory, gift shops, an arcade, a candy store, a mining shop, a western clothing store, a western art gallery, and even the Travelers Chapel!
Wall Drug Store is not far from Custer State Park, Mount Rushmore, the Crazy Horse Monument, and Rapid City, South Dakota. On your next visit to South Dakota, step back in time by stopping in Wall for a drink. Just follow the Wall Drug Store signs!
