Evaluation <br />• It possesses the potential to add significant information for our <br />understanding of past lifeways. It is considered eligible for inclusion to <br />the National Register of Historic Places, as previously suggested by SHPO. <br />5GF742 <br />This site is probably a Ute pictograph site (post Spanish contact) located on <br />the SSW cliff face of the north side of Munger Canyon. The panel consists of <br />three figures: a rider on horseback, a buffalo, and a line drawing (however, <br />the later 1983 report reports only two figures). <br />Recent erosion revealed a mano and a possible metate fragment noted during the <br />1983 survey. <br />Evaluation <br />This site is significant in that it may offer an opportunity to examine <br />cultural sequences stratigraphically. 5GF742 is recommended as eligible for <br />the National Register of Historic Places, especially in light of its close <br />proximity to 5GF1147. <br />SGF143 <br />This historic ranching site is located at the mouth of Munger Canyon. It <br />consists of three dug-out structures, a cistern, outhouse, chicken house, <br />barn, log structure and corral. The complex was established ca. 1917 and was <br />• used until the early 1950's (p.c. Mrs. Hitchborn). Artifactual material <br />consists of rusted tin and broken glass, one piece of which was amethyst. <br />This site is located on private land. <br />Evaluation <br />This site is not a unique representation of ranching activities in the area. <br />It is not considered to be eligible for inclusion to the National Register of <br />Historic Places, as assessed previously by the SHPO (May 1982). <br />5GF326 <br />Is erroneously described as a possible dry land sandstone cist of prehistoric <br />origin. Ao artifactual material was located in or ad,)acent to the structure. <br />This feature 1s actually a documented 1/4, 1/4 survey monument fora N/S line <br />of Section 32, T.7S., R.102W., Howard Canyon 7.5 quadrangle. This feature <br />will be avoided by construction and no further consideration of cultural <br />values is necessary. <br />S <br />• <br />
