| | Nezperce National Historic Trail | | Forced to abandon hopes for a peaceful move to the Lapwai reservation, the Nezperce chiefs saw flight to Canada as their last promise for peace. The flight of the Nezperce began on June 15, 1877. Pursued by the Army, they intended initially to seek safety with their Crow allies on the plains to the east. Their desperate and winding 1,170 mile route as they tried to escape the pursuing white forces is what we now call the Nezperce National Historic Trail. |
