September 12, 1878 Battle of Jackson Hole
Historians claim that Battle of Jackson Hole was a part of 1878's Bannock War but it was just an extension of an 1877 Anishinabe exodus. About a week after Americans had defeated Anishinabe Soldiers in northwestern Wyoming and southwestern Montana, in and just east of Yellowstone National Park, they focused their attention on an Anishinabe camp in what is now Jackson Hole National Park. A force of over 30 American Soldiers and their Indian allies, attacked an Anishinabe camp near Snake River in what is now Jackson Hole National Park, on Thursday September 12, 1878. And again brave Anishinabe Soldiers were capable of preventing American Soldiers from completely destroying their camp. Anishinabe casualties were 1 killed and 7 captured. They claim this battle ended their so called 1878 Bannock War but there was still a few Ojibways who refused to give up.
