i <br />_ "suspect" by the principal investigator or survey crew member. <br />In this particular case the lands were surveyed on non- <br />consecutive days in February, March, April and May. A total <br />of six field days and one lab day was spent on this project. <br />Clearance was allowed on a verbal basis pending this report. <br />Participants included K.T. Guzunis, John Lindstrom, Brian <br />• O'Neil, Robin Peoples, and this author. <br />Terrain: <br />The survey was mainly concerned with tributary canyons to <br />East Salt Creek. The tributaries are classified as rank IV- <br />ephemeral with the Colorado giver being rank I. East Salt <br />Creek is rank III-permanent. The main canyon is characterized <br />by having steep, east and west facing walls: The tributaries <br />run east to west and have generally north and south facing <br />walls. <br />The surrounding vegetation is of the upper Sonoran with the <br />canyon bottoms being predominantly grasses and sagebrush. Pinyon- <br />juniper breaks intrude upon the canyon floors, also. It is with- <br />in or near their bounds that the term "suspect areas" is applied <br />in about 5070 of the cases. <br />The surface geology is predominately the Mt. Garfield and <br />Sego sandstone formations. The mouth of the main canyon contains <br />Wasatch formation and alluvial deposits. <br />Literature Search: <br />- Recorded sites within the Douglas Pass area include three <br />prehistoric sites AR292, AR293, AR593 -- all of which have no <br />cultural affinity ascribed to them. Presumably,AR593 is late <br />
