This is the site where 6000 years ago the local Natives used this cliff to kill bufflo for their winter food supply.   They would stampede a bufflo heard over this 20 meter cliff. Any bufflo that were still alive were killed using spears. The meat was processed and provided the winter food for the tribe. This process continued until the late 1800's when they started using horses and guns to collect meat for the winter.

Head-Smashed-In Buffalo Jump.	Here the local tribe would drive the buffalo herd over the cliff and collect the next years meat.
