Prehistoric Drive Fence, Sheldon NWR
This is why I hike uphill, down hill, sweating, freezing, while lugging heavy camera equipment over rough terrain, all the while watching for rattlesnakes and other things that go bump in the night. I'm not positive , but I think this rock wall is really a drive fence created by the ancients to channel the wild game past their hunting blinds. We saw a lot of evidence of the ancients in the Sheldon...Really Good Stuff.
