This survey was in Chaffee County, Colorado, T.14S, R. <br />77W, Section 3. <br />Two proposed quarrying areas, labeled A and B and marked in red on the <br />accompanying map, were examined. Also examined, for a fifty foot right of way, <br />was a road connecting these areas, and a fifty foot road right of way joining <br />an existing road to U.S. 285. These two roads are also shown in red on the map. <br />' The field survey of the quarry areas was done by myself by describing a <br />tight zig-zag pattern within the quarry perimeters. The proposed roads were <br />also surveyed by walking each of them twice so as to meet the right of way <br />specifications. <br />No prehistoric cultural resources were found. Much of the areas was on <br />steep slopes (the contour interval of the map is forty feet) and previous <br />mining operations have destroyed much of the original surface. A small log <br />cabin, probably used as sleeping quarters for miners during the previous quarry <br />aperationa, was observed near quarry area B. This, apparently, has already <br />been determined to have no historical significance. <br />Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions concerning this <br />survey. n <br />Sincerely yours, <br />~~_ <br />Bruce J.
