Annual Montana Atlatl Mammoth Hunt
Saturday, September 01, 2012 - Monday, September 03, 2012
The Annual Montana Atlatl Mammoth Hunt moved to First Peoples Buffalo Jump, formerly Ulm Pishkun State Park. Experts and novices from around the country, and even the world, come try their hand at throwing the atlatl, an 8000 year-old hunting weapon. Targets for atlatl are set up along one section of the trail and participants are required to walk the trail, so bring hiking boots or comfortable shoes. A learning station will be setup for bow, tomahawk and atlatl for those unfamiliar with either.
