1 <br /> <br />' FIELD METHODS <br />' Survey Techniques <br /> The IOO~i pedestrian survey of the proposed refuse pile and <br />' sediment pond eras conducted by the author walking north to south <br />transects across the proposed area. These transects were spaced <br /> approximately 3 m. to 5 m. apart. The 100 m. wide transects in the <br /> 10; sample area were surveyed by two archaeologists spaced 25 ~n• <br />' apart. Compass bearings were used to orient the sweeps. Two <br /> sweeps, one down and one back, were sufficient to cover the 100 m. <br /> transects (Figure 4). <br />' The ground surface of the surveyed areas was closely observed <br /> for evidence of cultural remains. When artifacts were discovered, the <br />' immediate area of the find was closely examined. If no other additional <br />artifacts were discovered, ari Isolated Find Record eras completed. If <br /> additional artifacts were encountered, the area was recorded as an <br /> archaeological site and the Colorado Inventory Record was completed. <br />' In addition to the site form, a general site map eras drawn which shows <br /> the site in relation to prominent land forms, roads, fences or paths. <br /> A detailed site map was also made in the field. Compass angles and <br /> measurements were taken on every observable artifact. Shots were <br />' also made to topographic features on or around the site. These features <br /> included drainages, outcrops or paths. This information was later <br /> plotted into map form by Joan Gaunt and attached to the site forms <br />' (see Appendix). Black and white photographs were taken of each site. <br /> <br /> <br />1 <br /> <br />1 <br />1 <br />10 <br />
