Located ten and one-half miles northwest of Killdeer, this site commemorates a battle fought on July 28, 1864, between troops commanded by General Alfred Sully and Sioux Indians. Sully's 2,200 troops, with the aid of artillery batteries, scattered the encamped village. It was reported to have contained 6,000 warriors, with losses of 5 soldiers and perhaps 100-150 indians. There is a marker on the site.
