It took place in Wyoming and Montana territories and mainly fought over control of the Bozeman trail It was the shortest and easiest route from Fort Laramie and the Oregon Trail to the Montana Gold fields. From 1864 to 1866, the trail was traversed by about 3,500 miners, emigrant settlers and others. The emigrants competed with the Indians for the diminishing resources near the trail. Also it wasn't really fought in one spot they move from places to places killing civilians and burning resources and other things. In all Fifteen Indian attacks near Fort Kearny between July 16 and September 27 resulted in the deaths of 6 soldiers and 28 civilians and the loss of several hundred horses, mules, and cattle.
