Description

Whitebird Canyon Battlefield, Idaho, USA. This is where the first battle of the 1877 Nez Percé war took place. The Nez Percé defeated the U.S. Army.

Whitebird Canyon as the soldiers saw it approaching from the North. The Nez Perce encampment was along White Bird Creek, the tree line running left to right across the center of the photo. The soldiers established defense lines on the right hand knoll in the center and retreated up the ridge from which this photo is taken. White Bird Creek entered the Salmon River just off the right side of the photo.
