River Valley Hunting Grounds
— 1600's —
Early dwellers and visitors hunted bison, deer, and other game in Northeast Kentucky. Here, hunters take advantage of icy conditions at the shallow winter Ohio River crossing to kill their prey. The bison, or buffalos, ambling toward the Blue Licks salt springs, created a trace, a roadway, now called Buffalo Trace, that follows US 68 southwest.HM Number | HM1KV6 |
