The site was originally recorded in 1995 by MAC for the Colowyo Coal Company <br />1995 lease and exploration areas project. The site was described as a nondescript cabin in poor <br />condition with an outhouse and little associated debris located at 7,060 ft (2,152 m) on a small bench <br />in a chokecherry and Gambel oak grove above the East Fork of Jubb Creek (Figure 6.212). Soils <br />were described as colluvial sandy loam, and on -site vegetation consisted of rye grass, marsh grass, <br />scurvey grass, and dandelion. Surrounding vegetation was noted as mountain big sagebrush <br />grasslands. <br />Feature 1 consisted of a standing one -and -a -half story log cabin that was 17 x 19 ft and 10 ft high <br />(Figure 6.213). The logs were rectangular and hand -hewn in shape with square- notched corners, and <br />the foundation consisted of sandstone rocks. The roof was collapsed, and the ceiling and floor were <br />in ruins. Feature 2 was a collapsed outhouse made of milled lumber. A modest artifact assemblage <br />of domestic and utilitarian items was scattered over the site including a 1926 Colorado license plate. <br />The inscription "Ty Waters Feb. 13, 1925" was found penciled on the existing north window frame. <br />The current inventory found the site to be essentially unchanged but more deteriorated than in 1995. <br />A review of the MTP and Historical Indices for T4N, R93W, and BLM website indicates that the <br />47599 <br />TRC Mariah Associates Inc. <br />
