Native Americans chased bison herds over this bluff and hunted the injured animals in the ravine. Bone fragments protrude from the ground and artifacts such as butchering tools and stone points may occasionally be found (note that no digging is allowed and bone or artifacts may not be taken from the site).

This is a historical site on the Northern Cheyenne Reservation. If you are not a member of the Cheyenne tribe, you must be escorted to visit this site. No digging is allowed. If you find an artifact which is visible without digging, please note the location, take a photograph if possible, and inform someone at the Northern Cheyenne Tribal Council immediately (www.mtwytlc.com/northern.htm)
