The Battle of Mud Springs took place February 4–6, 1865, in Nebraska between the U.S. army and warriors of the Lakota Sioux, Cheyenne, and Arapaho tribes.
The battle is inconclusive, although the natives succeed in capturing some Army horses and a herd of several hundred cattle.
Mud Springs is located eight miles northwest of Dalton, Nebraska, and is today a National Historic Site.
