Local Tips
The Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument preserves the site of Custer's 1876 defeat. The Crow Fair — held in August — is one of the largest Native American gatherings in North America, bringing thousands of Crow people together for pow-wows, horse racing, and celebration in a spectacular encampment along the Little Bighorn River.
The Fair
Hardin is home to the Big Horn County Fair, which celebrates a southeastern Montana county where the Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument and the Crow Nation's homeland define a landscape of extraordinary historical significance — Custer's Last Stand at the Little Bighorn in 1876 is the most studied battle in American history, and the Crow people's Apsáalooke Nation has maintained a continuous presence in this country for generations.
