113 <br />site: 5RT24 (Figs 1, 14 ). <br />site Tyye: Open lithic. <br />coca ti on: S;SW;, Sec. 13, Ton, R81w; UTM Zone 13, E320,150m., N4 ,464,130m. <br />Description: 5RT24 is an open lithic site consisting of a thin scatter of <br />flakes in an area 50 by 100 m. It is located on a north-facing slope down- <br />stream from the confluence of Foidel Creek and an unnamed drainaye. Foidel <br />Creek constitutes the nearest water source, lying 15 m. to the north of <br />the site. The site elevation is 7150 ft. (2,119 m.). Vegetation on the <br />site includes sage, Gamble's oak, aspen trees and grasses. No surface fea- <br />tures were visible, nor were there any portable cultural materials other <br />than flakes. There is little natural disturbance, but a jeep trail tran- <br />sects the site and sheepherders have built two small sheep pens on the <br />site. <br />Diagnostic Artifacts: None. <br />evaluation: 5RT24 has no potential for yielding information important to <br />prehistory. No further action should be taken with regard to this site <br />unless endangered by future developments. <br />0 <br />~~ <br />
