Nez Perce Reach Big Hole | |
The steep trail over the Continental Divide was familiar but dif?cult. After the climb, and one night at Trail Creek, the Nez Perce made camp on the banks of a clear, cool stream where the forested mountains meet the green meadows. Horses grazed. Women cut lodge poles and gathered roots. Children played and men hunted game. They had made it to the Iskumkselalik Pah; meaning place of the ground squirrels. | |
