Summary
The Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument is shutting down four days a week ahead of its 150th anniversary, leaving visitors disappointed and local businesses reeling. Once open daily, the site now only operates Friday through Sunday — a surprise to many and a blow to tourism-driven shops and gas stations. International travelers and long-planned visitors are being turned away, with some businesses reporting a 20% drop in visitors. Construction, originally slated for completion by the anniversary, now extends into October, with locals frustrated by lack of communication. Critics also question whether the closure of this sacred battlefield and cemetery is being handled with the dignity it deserves — while park officials remain silent on the growing concerns.
