That's an interesting battle, and some great personal artifacts - it looks as though the arrowheads were used. Here's a bit of extra info.:

I wonder how a war party of that size could be 'snuck up on'?

Again, way cool. Thanks for sharing this. A one day event and you find cartridges and a slew of buttons. Yep, way cool.

  A great number of relics were found on this site over the years by a number of hunters.
Larry Finnell has found over 2000 interesting items at this site and many of them can be seen at the museum in Sterling, Colorado.
