Hudson Meng Bison Bone Bed

Think of it as a kind of prehistoric bison murder-mystery: whatdunnit? Over 600 bison died near an ancient spring 10,000 years ago.  Were they stampeded by early Paleo-Indian hunters, trapped by a raging prairie fire or struck by lighting? The answers are still not clear, but it's a fascinating stop!

How to Find It: Follow Highway 2 north from Crawford for 4.2 miles, to Toadstool Road. Follow Toadstool Road for 7.4 miles, to the intersection of Sand Creek Road. 6.3 miles on Sand Creek Road to site turnoff.
