His column was one of three comprising the Powder River Indian Expedition sent to secure the Bozeman and other emigrant trails leading to the Montana mining fields. During the Battle of Tongue River, Connor was able to inflict serious damage on the Arapahos, but an aggressive counter attack forced him to retreat back to the newly estab- lished Fort Connor (later renamed Reno) on the banks of the Powder River. There he received word that he had been reassigned to his old command in the District of Utah. The Powder River Expedition, one of the most comprehensive campaigns against the Plains Indians, never completely succeeded. Connor had planned a complex operation only to be defeated by bad weather, inhospitable ter- Section 3 rain, and hostile Indians. Long term effects of the Expedition proved detrimental to the inter- ests of the Powder River tribes.

    G. Summary of identification and Evaluation Methods Discuss the methods used in developing the multiple property listing. The Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality, using federal financial assistance, contracted with the Wyoming State Historic Preservation Office to conduct an intensive cultural resource inventory of the Bozeman Trail in Wyoming. This historic resource received priority because it passes through the Powder River Basin, an area heavily impacted by energy development. The study area for the inventory included the corridor paralleling and containing the trail as well as historic sites associated with the route. The object was to identify and inventory the trail's cultural resources and evaluate those resources for their eligibility for listing in the National Register of Historic Places. The survey and inventory work will also assist in planning future mining and energy exploration in Converse, Campbell, Johnson and Sheridan Counties and for review and compliance activities of the Wyoming SHPO. |X I See continuation sheet H.
