120 <br />• site: 5RT35 (Figs 1, 17). <br />Site Type: Open architectural. <br />Location: SW<NE;, Sec. 7, Ton, R86w; UTM Zone 13, E323,250m., N4 ,466,690m. <br />description: 5RT35 is an historic site consisting of three structures <br />built of milled lumber, a well, and a trash dump. Assorted farm machinery <br />lies scattered about the site. The site area is located at the foot of <br />a long northeast-trending ridge, directly south of Pinnacle Peak. The <br />nearest water, other than the well on the site, is an unnamed drainage <br />50 m. east. The elevation of the site is 6950 ft. (2,118 m.). The local <br />vegetation includes sagebrush and local grasses. The site faces to the <br />~ north, but is exposed in all directions due to the gentle slope on which <br />it is located. Cultural material observed includes a stove, a plow, as- <br />sorted sheet metal, glass fragments, and a quantity of trash. The site <br />covers an area 40 by 55 m. The structural remains consist of a dwelling, <br />barn, chicken coop, and a well. There is no visible disturbance other <br />than deterioration due to weathering and exposure. The architectural and <br />artifactual evidence indicate abandonment within the last 30 years. <br />diagnostic artifacts: Columbine stove, model 8-16. <br />evaluation: Archival research by a trained historian is required before <br />5RT35 can be properly evaluated for nomination to the NRHP. We do feel <br />that the site does not meet the criteria for nomination to the NRHP on <br />architectural grounds. <br /> <br />
