Step back in time to the heart of the Second Battle of Adobe Walls, where 28 brave buffalo hunters faced off against a coalition of Native American tribes in an epic struggle for survival. You'll discover the intricate history behind the Medicine Lodge Treaty of 1867, designed to safeguard Native lands but ultimately undermined by the relentless buffalo hide trade following the Civil War. Find out how pioneers like J Wright Moore and George Hoodoo Brown revolutionized the hunting industry with powerful rifles and new tanning methods, dramatically declining buffalo numbers and reshaping the frontier economy, especially in towns like Dodge City, Kansas.

Join us as we recount the harrowing events of June 26, 1874, at the Adobe Walls Trading Post, where a united front of Native American tribes, led by Comanche medicine man Isetai and Quanah Parker, sought revenge for the buffalo slaughter. We'll unveil the gripping details of the intense battle, spotlighting the bravery of the 28 men and one woman who stood their ground against overwhelming odds. Plus, don't miss our preview of the Western Cattle Trail Association's 150th Anniversary Conference in Dodge City, where we will delve into the profound economic impacts of the buffalo hide trade and the Red River War on the region's cattle trade.
