<br />SURVEY ~dETHODS <br />After conducting a files search and a prefield check-in with the <br />Bureau of Land Management, Grand River Institute performed a sampling <br />(Class II) cultural resources survey of the lands described on page 3. <br />Of the 6100 acres within the project area, 875 acres (or approximately <br />14 percent) were subjected to a 100 percent survey. Included were all <br />areas of potential surface disturbance as delineated on a map from Sheridan <br />Enterprises. Additional areas were chosen for inspection on the basis of <br />slope: the local topography being generally characterized by narrow ridges <br />and numerous steep-walled intermittent drainages, those sporadic areas <br />of lesser slope (0-100) and having the greatest potential for campsites <br />(i.e., ridgetops and canyon bottoms) were selected. It should be noted <br />that portions of. the areas surveyed for this project had been previously <br />. surveyed by Hibbets et al. (1979) and by Grand River Institute personnel <br />during the past few years but, because of some confusion over exact acreages <br />• previously surveyed, surveyors rewalked several area. Figure 3 outlines <br />those areas within the project boundary which were surveyed during the <br />current study, areas previously surveyed within the project boundary, and <br />the overlap of the two. <br />The pedestrian survey of the sample areas was accomplished by a crew <br />of two to three people who walked linear transects spaced at intervals of <br />15 to 25 meters. Crew members were positioned on-line, with the supervisor <br />in the center (when three members were used). Compass readings and land <br />mark sightings were used to maintain direction. Each surveyor covered about <br />forty to sixty acres per day, depending on the terrain. Boundaries were <br />established by visual reconnaissance of the topography. <br />Field crews worked form U.S.G.S. 7.5' series topographic maps. When <br />cultural resources were identified, they were plotted on the maps, photo- <br />graphed, and a sketch map-to-scale was drawn. OSAC forms were completed <br />for each site. <br /> <br />20 <br />
