One of two verified Buffalo jumps in North America. This site consists of two stacked stone walls that run along the edge of a cliff that Funnel down into a opening over a steep cliff 20 feet tall.
Currently the site is overgrown with cactus and cedar trees. At the base of the cliff a former archaeological expedition revealed extensive American bison skeletons that display processing evidence. This site is on private property and requires permission of the land owner to visit.
