First Peoples Buffalo Jump State Park is a Montana state park in Cascade County, Montana in the United States. The park is and sits at an elevation of . It is located about northwest of the small town of Ulm, which is near the city of Great Falls. First Peoples Buffalo Jump State Park contains the Ulm Pishkun (also known as the Ulm Buffalo Jump), a historic buffalo jump utilized by the Native American tribes of North America.〔(Pishkun State Park Management Plan: Final.'' Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks. December 2005, p. iv. )〕 It has been described as, geographically speaking, either North America's largest buffalo jump〔Alberta-Montana Heritage Partnership, p. 272; Gale, p. 143; Gottberg, Harris, and Haselsteiner, p. 579.〕〔Robison, p. 13.〕〔Baumler, p. 15.〕 or the world's largest.〔Wilson, p. 256; Wright, p. 7; Conklin, p. 40; Gilles, p. 52.〕〔Schalla and Johnson, p. 60.〕 There is some evidence that it was the most utilized buffalo jump in the world.〔Puckett, Karl. "Historic Buffalo Jump Site." ''Great Falls Tribune.'' May 30, 1999.〕 The site was added to the National Register of Historic Places on December 17, 1974,〔Puckett, Karl. "Bison Kill Site Yields Terrific Old Treasures." ''Great Falls Tribune.'' July 5, 1999.〕 and designated a National Historic Landmark in August 2015. The former name of the park was derived from the Blackfeet word "Pis'kun," meaning "deep kettle of blood," and the nearby town of Ulm.〔Aarstad et al., p. 272.〕〔(''Ulm Pishkun State Park Management Plan: Final.'' Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks. December 2005, p. 1. )〕〔In March 1999, the Blackfeet tribe of Montana asked that the public and state officials begin calling the site by a new name, Kakpayta Peyasu Pishkun (or Listening Thunder Pishkun). However, state officials said that since the site was used by many tribes and not just the Blackfeet, the old name would stay. See: Puckett, Karl. "Group Says It Changed the Name of Ulm Pishkun." ''Great Falls Tribune.'' March 8, 1999.〕 Although there are more than 300 buffalo kill sites in Montana,〔 First People's Buffalo Jump is one of only three protected buffalo jumps in the state. The other two are Madison Buffalo Jump near Three Forks, and Wahkpa Chu'gn near Havre〔Graf, p. 20.〕 (both of which are also on the National Register of Historic Places).〔 ==History==
