~I <br /> <br />MAC <br />Metcalf Archaeological Consultants, Inc. <br />June 25, 1993 <br />Richard Fike <br />District Archaeologist <br />BLM, Montrose District <br />2465 S. Townsend <br />Montrose, CO 81401 <br />Mr. Fike. <br />• <br />Enclosed find three copies of a negative report for cultural resource inventory of three exploratory drilling <br />locations on Jumbo Mountain near Bowie. I conducted the survey on June 16 for ARCO Coal Company <br />accompanied by staff geologist Glenn Miller. Access [o proposed drill sites 93-A and 93-B follows <br />existing, previousy bladed trails that will only require minimal improvement, 'rf any. Access from an <br />existing trail to drill site 93-D is through dense aspens with high, but somewhat open brush understory. <br />Surface visibility in all of the project areas was adequate to locate and identity cultural resources, and no <br />materials were found. Cultural resource clearance is recommended for exploratory drilling to proceed at <br />these proposed locations. Several other locations within the ARCO Jumbo Mountain exploration License <br />area involve private surface and will be surveyed in the near future when arrangements with the <br />landowners are confirmed. <br />If you require any clarification or additional materials, do not hesitate to contact me. <br />Sincerely, <br />f~~~ <br />Carl S~3Ih, Ph.D. <br />Senior Staff Archaeologist <br />xc: Glenn E.
