July 24
Went TO Alberta Canada and a place called Head Bashed-In Buffalo Jump. It is where the Blackfoot ran the buffalo off a cliff. They showed how complicating and dangerous it is to do. It would take the whole tribe of males to funnel the buffalo into an area to guide them to the cliff. When you are on top of the cliff you cannot see that it ends. The building was amazing. It was built into the cliff and has 7 floors of displays showing how the tribe used all of the animal. If you wanted you could rent a teepee and sleep overnight. Since we were not going to us the teepee we did not check details. There is a white mark on the cliff face that shows where they hearded the buffalo over.
On this day we saw Rocky Mountain Sheep, deer or elk we are not sure, and cows on the road.
We are now in Montana.
Drove till 9pm and then camped on the side of the road.
