The Little Bighorn River
The 'Little Bighorn River' is a tributary of the
Bighorn River in the
United States in the states of
Wyoming and
Montana. The river is somewhat infamous as the site of the
Battle of the Little Bighorn in
1876.
The Little Bighorn rises in extreme northern Wyoming, along the north side of the
Bighorn Mountains. It flows northward into Montana and across the
Crow Indian Reservation, past the town of
Crow Agency, and joins the Bighorn near the town of
Hardin.
The battle site, which is on the grounds of
Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument, is approximately five miles south of Crow Agency, along the eastern side of the river.
