President Arthur's Party Visits Fort Washakie Route to Yellowstone
An August 8 1883 stop at Fort Washakie on the way to Yellowstone Park is described in the Cheyenne Daily Leader. The party was entertained with an Indian dance and a troop drill by Captain Hayes of Troop G 5th Cavalry, followed by a sham battle by 250 mounted Shoshone and Arapaho. The expedition camped between Trout Creek and the North Fork of the Little Wind River, then rode toward Yellowstone on August 9. The Cheyenne reports note the president’s riding skill and fishing at the camp along a trout stream, with early departures and enjoyment of camp life.
