He insisted that I go to the Big Hole Battle Field. I at the time knew very little of the Nez Perce war of 1877. I got to the Big Hole probably the last day of the season last fall. It snowed in as I was leaving. One of the most powerful experiences of my life. As I walked towards the camp area about 30 yds. from the first tipis I walked into what I discovered was a large bubble of spirit energy. It was as if I hit a wall. The entire time in the camp I felt strong male anger and rage. I placed my hand on the ground in both Chief Joseph's and Chief Toohoohoolzote's tipi ring. I instantly had a vision in Toohoohoolzote's ring. It was that of the picture/sculpter called ,End of The Trail. I then knew ,he knew, all was lost at this battle. My hand tingled for 25 mins. after leaving the camp area. I felt myself walk thru the spirit energy bubble upon leaving same. When I got home ,I placed my hand within an inch of a picture of Chief Joseph that I have hanging in my living room. The hand tingled the whole time as before. So if you would like to experience probably the most spiritual thing you may ever do, please visit this site. But PLEASE be very respectful, you will be in a cemetary. I have since done much research of this battle and the war. Yellow Wolf's quote, in his book ,of what he remembered about this battle, states: he was very angry here. I felt all of this , maybe you will to. Shaman Terry Brother of Eagle I am a Cherokee Shaman, I healed the bone spur of Chief Elder Francis’s wife at the Butte Pow Wow of 2007.

Did anyone actually LOOK at the mileage from Great Falls to the Big Hole National Battle Field? It's 240 miles ONE WAY. Even in Montana, that ain't a day trip. This is a day trip from Butte (88 miles one way), Anaconda (50-odd miles one way) or Missoula (112 miles one way). A day trip from Great Falls?
