The graphic intensity and structural complexity of Miner 1, with an entryway, external cairns, and other features, distinguish this site as one of the most interesting Medicine Wheels.

Site Plan & Local Topography:


Setting:        Located  north  of the  Red  Deer  River,  occupying  the  prairie  level  adjacent to  the  valley rim  with  an  extensive  view. 

Brief:            A  5m  diameter  central  cairn  encircled  by  an  irregular   15m  diameter  stone  circle. There  is  a  2.2m  E  and  a   1.2m  SE  wheel  opening.   The  SE  opening  is  marked  by two  spokes  radiating  outward;  the  N  one  is   30m  long  and  ends  in  a  small  cairn after  passing  through  a  well-defined  stone  circle,   and  the  S  one  is   9m  long  and  also ends  in  a  small  cairn.  There  are  seven  other  spokes  with  lengths  between  4.5   and 9m.  Four of these end in large  stones,  and one  in  a small cairn. 

Design:        The complexity and undisturbed nature of Miner 1, along with its nearby companion sites, make it one of the most important medicine wheels to analyze comprehensively.
