The Dull Knife battlefield is on private land and is available to visit only by special arrangement. The fight took place on November 25, 1876. The battlefield site was considered by the Cheyenne to be sufficiently remote to be safe as winter quarters. The location is presently the site of a ranch. The site was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.
