Old West Vignettes: The Battle Of K-H Butte
This video, "Old West Vignettes: The Battle Of K-H Butte," delves into historical conflicts from August and September of 1881. It begins by referencing the Battle of Cibecue Creek, stemming from the arrest and murder of medicine man Nock-ay-det-klinne. The narrative then shifts to Geronimo and other Apache leaders who, fearing further bloodshed, escaped the San Carlos reservation with 74 warriors and 300 women and children. Their flight towards Mexico involved raids for supplies, culminating in a confrontation on October 2nd, 1881, between the Apache warriors and approximately 200 Federal troopers, which became known as the Battle of K-H Butte.
