The scenic ridge area lies along the edge of the old Great Black Swamp and the old Big Spring Indian Reservation which was home to the Wyandot Indians and was the last Indian Reservation east of the Mississippi River. Has been filmed by for several movies and documentaries. The site has yielded over ten thousand different specimens and artifacts which include over sixty five species of life that lived in Ohio prior to the last glacial coverage of the region. Rare extinct species found at the site include short faced bear, elk-moose, flat headed and long nosed peccary. This is the most recent site on the planet where the giant beaver lived. The giant beaver was over six feet long and weighed over 250 pounds.
