Steptoe Battlefield State Park Heritage Site
Steptoe Battlefield State Park Heritage Site, National historic battlefield in Rosalia, United States.
The three-acre state park features stone monuments and interpretive panels overlooking the surrounding fields of eastern Washington State.
The park marks the location of the 1858 Battle of Pine Creek between U.S. Army forces under Lt. Col. Edward Steptoe and Native American tribes.
The Daughters of the American Revolution installed a commemorative stone monument in 1914 to mark where Colonel Steptoe's troops made their final stand.
Visitors can access the park from 6:30 AM to dusk in summer and 8:00 AM to dusk in winter, with entrance requiring a Discover Pass.
The park's elevation of 2,365 feet provides views across the battlefield landscape where U.S. forces encountered Spokane, Palouse, and Coeur d'Alene tribes.
