57 <br />• Site Distribution <br />Prehistoric cultural remains for Tract 5 are limited to a single <br />isolated find located on the ridge west of Taylor Creek on the eastern <br />side of Sec. 18, Tan, R93w. No other cultural materials were observed, <br />other than recent historic roads and fencelines (Table 11). <br />Off-Tract Survey Area <br />Aside from the off-tract area surveyed adjacent to Tract 8, the only <br />other off-tract area is located on the western side of Duffy Mountain, in <br />the NW!; of Sec. 32, T6n, R93w. This area was examined after a local resi- <br />' dent informed the survey crew that one or more deteriorating petrograph <br />sites were located there. No petrography were located, but Sh1F344 and <br />SMF345 were recorded. These are both open lithic sites located on and <br />•~• adjacent to the saddle between Duffy Mountain and Signal Butte, just above <br />the western end of the Duffy Tunnel. Roughly ninety acres were covered in <br />the search for the rock art sites. <br />Summary of Survey Results <br />Area Surveyed <br />A total of 14,278 ac., or 32% of the total acreage (Table 12) was <br />surveyed within the tract boundaries. An additional 555 ac. were sur- <br />veyed outside but adjacent to the tract boundaries, resulting in a grand <br />total of 14,833 ac. The "Field checked, rejected" category, as identified <br />27,540 ac. , contained about 63%. The "Not field checked" category, as iden- <br />tified in Figs 3 through 7, includes acreage that was not surveyed for several <br />• reasons. A lack of tenant permission caused 814 ac., or about 2"~ of <br />
