Lang On October 5, 1877, at the end of one of the trulyheroic episodes in the Indian Wars in the Northwest, Chief Joseph of the Nez Percessurrendered to General Nelson A. Miles on a snow-dustedbattlefield along Snake Creek near present- day Havre, Montana. The Indians gave up just forty-some miles short of their destination-the international border with Canada,where they hoped to find a sanctuary.They had been pursued for nearly three months and over thirteen hundredmiles fromtheir reservationin central Idaho,testing the military'sskill and their own stamina. In his surrender message,Joseph describedhis people's condition as destitute and his warriorsas tired of the struggle."I will fight no more forever"-purportedly Joseph's words-became an anthem and was symbolic of the Nez Perces' struggleand failure to . : escape the military's inevitable maw. A few more daysof either better weatheror more strength might have changed the tragicoutcome of this nearly legen- dary tale of heroics on the Montana plains. What had pre- vented the Nez Perces from outdistancing their pursuers? How had they been able to succeed for hundredsof miles and months of deprivationonly to fall short duringthe firstweeks of autumn? Partof the explanation is in YellowstoneNational Park.It was in Yellowstone that the Nez Perces took their only rest duringthe long march. Having consistently outmaneuvered the military since their flight in central Idaho in July, the eight hundredor moreNez Perceshad pushedthemselves and their nearlytwo thousandhead of stock as hardas they could. But in Yellowstone, with the military several days behind them, they pausedfor nearlytwo weeks, time enough to have outracedthe harsh autumnweather and the military'spincer to gain sanctuaryin Canada. Why did the Indiansstay so long in the Park?And exactly where did they go?These two questionshave puzzledjournal- ists and historiansever since the surrender,and the answers that have been proposedhave never been satisfactory.Too manycontradictions remain unresolved and too many impor- tant issues have been ignored by historians, whose inatten- tion to details of the geography and ignorance of the landformshave sent them literallyon the wrong trails.Their misreadingof the documentsand their mistakenassumptions about Indian leadershiphave led them even furtherastray. Most importantly, they have misunderstood the Indians' purpose. The clues have been there all along, both in the documentsand on the groundin YellowstoneNational Park.z 14 MONTANATHE MAGAZINEOF WESTERNHISTORY This content downloaded by the authorized user from 192.168.52.75 on Fri, 7 Dec 2012 11:48:26 AM All use subject to JSTOR Terms and Conditions 0 cJ) 0 OC) 0 UM 03 This content downloaded by the authorized user from 192.168.52.75 on Fri, 7 Dec 2012 11:48:26 AM All use subject to JSTOR Terms and Conditions R etracing the physicalroute of the Nez Reservation directly to Canada and safety.

  • December 18, 2020 Fish Consumption Guidance Updated for Portions Of
    Media contact: Trevor Selch, FWP Fisheries Pollution Biologist, 406-444-5686 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: December 18, 2020 Fish consumption guidance updated for portions of Clark Fork, Bitterroot and Blackfoot Rivers in western Montana MISSOULA – The State of Montana Fish Guidance Board, which includes Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks (FWP) and the Departments of Environmental Quality (DEQ), and Public Health and Human Services (DPHHS), has updated the fish consumption guidance for all species of fish on a 148-mile stretch of the Clark Fork River and tributaries in western Montana in response to new research results. Guidance now recommends avoiding consumption of all species of fish from the Clark Fork River’s confluence with the Bitterroot River, just west of Missoula, to the confluence with the Flathead River, near Paradise. Slightly revised guidance is also in place for rainbow trout and northern pike on an upstream section of the Clark Fork and for the Blackfoot and Bitterroot Rivers. New data was collected to assess chemical contaminants including dioxins, furans, and PCBs in fish tissue in a study area on the Clark Fork that extended from approximately 30 miles upstream of Missoula to 100 miles downstream. Testing in the area is underway as part of water quality monitoring around the former Smurfit-Stone Container mill site. Upon review of the study results, new guidance was issued based on high levels of contaminants in the fish tissue. The source of all the contaminants found in the fish has not been attributed. The study only looked at contaminant concentrations found in the muscle tissues of northern pike and rainbow trout, but the same “Avoid” guidance extends to all species present in the Clark Fork River near Missoula (such as brown trout, whitefish, small- and large-mouth bass, northern pikeminnow, and sucker species) because similar food habits, habitat use, and life- span suggest they could also contain chemical concentrations at potentially dangerous levels.

  • Nez Perce (Nee-Me-Poo) National Historic Trail Progress Report Summer 2015
    Nez Perce (Nee-Me-Poo) National Historic Trail Progress Report Summer 2015 Administrator’s Corner Greetings, Trail Fit? Are you up for the challenge? A trail hike or run can provide unique health results that cannot be achieved indoors on a treadmill while staring at a wall or television screen. Many people know instinctively that a walk on a trail in the woods will also clear the mind. There is a new generation that is already part of the fitness movement and eager for outdoor adventure of hiking, cycling, and horseback riding-yes horseback riding is exercise not only for the horse, but also the rider. We are encouraging people to get out on the Nez Perce (Nee-Me-Poo) National Historic Trail Photo Service Forest U.S. (NPNHT) and Auto Tour Route to enjoy the many health Sandra Broncheau-McFarland benefits it has to offer. Remember to hydrate during these hot summer months. The NPNHT and Auto Tour Route is ripe for exploration! There are many captivating places and enthralling landscapes. Taking either journey - the whole route or sections, one will find unique and authentic places like nowhere else. Wherever one goes along the Trail or Auto Tour Route, they will encounter moments that will be forever etched in their memory. It is a journey of discovery. The Trail not only provides alternative routes to destinations throughout the trail corridor, they are destinations in themselves, each with a unique personality. This is one way that we can connect people to place across time. We hope you explore the trail system as it provides opportunities for bicycling, walking, hiking, running, skiing, horseback riding, kayaking, canoeing, and other activities.
