Kinaksisahtai

Kinaksisahtai, the Little River, is a Blackfoot name for the Milk River. Rising near the eastern slopes of the Rocky Mountains, the Milk bends north into the plains before turning southeast toward the Missouri. Its western reaches pass through the grassland country of the Blackfoot Confederacy. The valley leads away from the mountain front into the open plains, following a long arc across the northern part of the Missouri basin.
