The Return of the Atlatl
By Moosetrack Megan

Posted: June 29, 2017

– Montana State Parks (stateparks.mt.gov) is hosting an interpretive program at Lewis and Clark Caverns State Park on July 1st.

 

Before there were rifles and cannons hunting took a lot of skill. The atlatl is one of the first mechanized weapons used for hunting as well as in battle.   Lewis and Clark Caverns State Park will have a few available so you can test your ability at using an atlatl.
