52 <br /> Stone circles were present on 5 (26a) of the sites within the <br /> Study Area. The number of stone circles observed on sites ranged <br /> from 1-11, though only one site (5BL876) contained more than <br /> three stone circles. Site 5BL876 was the only stone circle site <br /> within the Study Area recommended for inclusion in the NRHP. <br /> Test excavation of stone circle site 5BL3129 prior to <br /> determination of significance was recommended by Burney. <br /> Open Camps accounted for (211) of the sites within the Study <br /> Area. These sites contained hearths and/or cairns in addition to <br /> lithic scatters . All of these sites were recommended for NRHP <br /> inclusion; one iSBL2431) has been subjected to test excavation. <br /> The remaining site location , I5BL4151) was reported by Orback to <br /> have contained a protohistoric burial. Although the skeletal <br /> material was purportedly removed by the University of Colorado <br /> Anthropology Club in the 1970s, and the burial crevice itself <br /> subsequently collapsed, grave goods were found by Orback in a <br /> catchment area below the purported grave location. The site is <br /> recommended for inclusion in the NRHP. <br />
