Aboriginal people of the area were semi-nomadic. During summer months their camps would be set up on the vast prairies. The camps would be positioned on hilltops where they could see for long distances or in valleys for protection against the elements. Aboriginal migration was determined by buffalo herd migration. Weather was also a contributing factor. During the winter months they traveled to more wooded areas where they had more protection from the wind and cold. Tent rings visible today are still present because the rings were reused every time they returned to an area.
