<br />Doth tracts were surveyed on foot by one archaeologist. In the <br />undic.?urbed areas, I walked parallel transacts across the areas, the <br />spacing 6et~veen my transec is never exceeding G5 ft. (20 m). This survey <br />tactic was modified slightly in the disturbed portions of Tract I: here, <br />I walked a zigzag pattern through these areas. <br />ldhe raver I did walk, I carefully inspected the ground surfs re for <br />all evidence of past human activity, prehistoric and historic. 41rien <br />such evidence was encountered, the area around the•initial find was <br />scrutinizes to determine the numbers and kinds of cultural remains. <br />These localities containing three or less artifacts were designated <br />isolated Finds (IF). Details about each IF ere re described in a brief <br />format en an lsolated Fird Record fornr, distributed by the Colorado <br />Office of Archaeology and Flistorrc Preservation (OAHP). The lncaticn of <br />the IF was marked on an aerial photograph, for later transference to a <br />topographic map. All artifacts rlere measured in three dimensions. and <br />the best examples sketcl~c.d in plan and pr•ofi7e. <br />Those localities containing four or more artifacts were called <br />Sites. Geer-ral characteristics of each site rte re described in detail on <br />the ORIIP Inventory Record forir.. prehistoric sites were described <br />further en the CARP Archaeol~ical Component form; the OAIIP Architect- <br />ural/Historical Com(onent ior7a was use~or historic resources. <br />sketch neap of the site area was drawn, and several photographs taken of <br />the siti: and its surrcundings. prepared tools ur unusual artifacts <br />wer'C sketched in two dimensions. The significance cf each site and its <br />~` eligibility for nami»ation to the Rational Reyister was evaluated, and <br />reconr.:endations made to protect those Sites which might be considered <br />significant. The site location eras plotted cn the aerial photograph of <br />the project areas, to be transferred later to the appropriate <br />topographic map. <br />~~ <br />11 <br />• <br />(Revised July 2006) Attachment 2.04.4-1-19 <br />
