I have created the basics for this page but I will now leave the writing of it to an editer that knows more about the battle than I do.--Az81964444 (talk) 04:24, 9 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Canyon or River[edit]

Additionally some Jicarilla women and children and some of the Indians' horses drowned while crossing the Ojo Caliente River. Later the fleeing Indians without the food lost with their camp suffered from exposure and seventeen women and children perished in the snow.

Someone added this reference. I dont know much about this battle but I was wondering if Ojo Caliente Canyon or Ojo Caliente River is the proper name for the engagement?

If Ojo Caliente River is more precise, please somone who knows more about the battle, rename it properly, thanks.--Az81964444 (talk) 20:49, 9 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
