Description: <br />• One collapsed log outbuilding (structure #2 of 1976 site form) associated with the Gollob Mine (SGN37) was <br />within the west edge of the survey corridor for the access to the ventilation shafts, but outside the azea of <br />impact of road construction The building is very badly deteriorated and has little associated material <br />31. Using your professional knowledge of the region, why are there none or very limited cultural <br />remains in the project area? Is there subsurface potential?: The areas surveyed were predominantly <br />narrow gulch floors, or steep, rocky colluviat and bedrock slopes. The slopes north of drill location II <br />were gentler and more open, and were located across the drainage from an improved spring, but were <br />still steep (ca. 20%) for a favorable camp or cabin location <br />
