The Family

The He Does It and Half families live in a remote area on the Crow Indian Reservation beneath the Bighorn Mountains near Ft. Smith, Montana.  We are traditional and modern Crow Indians, who raise horses and cattle on our ranch and feel strongly that our way is a good way.

Our concepts of being are the things that make us happy and satisfied with life.  See how our way of life once was, how it is now. and how the outside has affected changes in the Crow Indian people.  Participate in our lifestyle as we do our daily chores, practice and live by our values, customs and what we believe.  Experience the richness of our life by participating in how we live and combine both worlds.
 
We will share some our philosophies, myths and legends used to teach and instill values taught to us from birth.  Let us show you Crow country in a way never seen by the outside.
 
We call ourselves Apsa'alooke, the Children of the Large Beaked Bird, but to most, we are known as Crows.  The Crow Indian can not categorize their social or religious way of life like the white man, because everything is interwoven (connected) and our belief enters into every aspect of our life.
 
West Fork is the home of Half Quarter Horses.  Good horses are a business with us.  Horses have played a great part in our culture.  Like our ancestors we take great pride in our horses.  We grew up amid horses, cattle and rodeo.  We have a sense about animals.  A way of life we love because of the unique blend of direction and freedom.
