NPS The Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument's 2024 Superintendent's Compendium is available. The Superintendent is required to complete in writing all the designations, closures, permit requirements and other restrictions implemented under the discretionary authority of the park superintendent. The regulations and provisions contained in this Compendium apply to all persons entering, using, visiting, or otherwise within the boundaries of federally owned lands and waters administered by the National Park Service as part of Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument. The park intends that this Compendium, in conjunction with park brochures, maps, signs, and other media, provides the public and park employees with a clear understanding of park regulations to ensure adequate protection of the park's resources and provide for public safety and enjoyment. Many of the requirements of this Compendium complement existing state and local law and regulations which are also in effect within the park. If a state or local law is currently enacted, this Compendium does not replace or repeal that law.
