Legs of Steele Traditional Cache
onecrazycanadian: Hi,
I'm archiving this listing since it's been at least 2 weeks since I last contacted you and there has been no response. If you correct the problem I indicated at some time in the near future I will take another look at it and may consider unarchiving the cache.
Thanks

A little bit of history for you folks;
The battle of Steele Narrows took place on June 3, 1885, and was the last engagement of the North-West Resistance. Often called the Battle of Loon Lake, it was an encounter between Steele’s Scouts, led by Sam Steele, and the Woods and Plains Cree warriors led by Big Bear. Steele’s advance party and the Cree were both surprised when they came upon each other at the Narrows. The Cree withdrew to an entrenched position on a hill overlooking the Narrows and, low in ammunition, Steele’s troops withdrew also. A peace delegation from the Cree camp approached Steele’s Scouts but was fired upon. A battle followed, where several Scouts were wounded and at least five Cree were killed. Today, Steele Narrows is a provincial historical site located approximately 10 km west of Loon Lake.
