Excerpt from Among the Rockies
Though the Bighorn Canon is located within sixty miles of Fort Custer, in Montana, where I am writing, I can find no one who has ever been through it. Some men have been in it, but did not stay long, and only a few have traversed it for as much as twenty miles.
The only man I ever met on these plains who could give a good account of the great canon. Was Lieut. George P. Belden, the celebrated trapper, guide and scout, who died some years ago. Even 'old and thoroughly travelled scouts and hunters have had to acknowledge that they knew nothing about the Bighorn Canon.
Belden Often told me about it, and said he had been from its mouth to the top, and once had spent a portion of the winter beneath the friendly shelter of its mighty walls. Belden left some notes in a book giving a partial account of the sunken plain, as he called it.
