This is the Blackfoot Tribe's Sacred Site of the Buffalo Effigy located South of the Village of Big Beaver Saskatchewan. The Buffalo Effigy was constructed by local Indigenous Blackfoot Tribe from fieldstone overlooking West Beaver Creek near the border with Montana.

The 64-hectare site was formally recognized in 1999. Besides the Buffalo Effigy, there is a stone cairn and at least eight stone rings.

Access is restricted as a guide is required to have access to the Site by the local Indigenous Blackfoot Tribe.

Blackfoot Buffalo Effigy submitted by TheDruid-3X3 : The Sign at the Entrance Gate saying to Stop as this is Private Property of the Blackfoot Tribe and previous Permission is needed and a Guide is required to go see the Effigy. The Sign as the Phone Number needed to get Permission is there. So since I did not have Previous Permission, I did not go in. (Vote or comment on this photo)
