The Army had targeted Chief Mountain Chief's band of Piegan's for this punishment, but instead massacred the peaceful band lead by Chief Heavy Runner. Around 173 Blackfeet Indians were killed on January 23, 1870 near the Marias river in Montana, including 53 women and children, while another 140 women and children were left without supplies in the -43 degree January weather.
