This report presents the results of two archeological studies of prehistoric lithic procurement locations: the Halls Crossing site (42SA14829) in Glen Canyon National Recreation Area and the White Crack site (42SA17597) in Canyonlands National Park in southeastern Utah.

These thin bifaces served as multipurpose implements,...
A Class I Cultural Resource Records Review for the Navajo Generating Station Water Intake Maintenance Project near Page, Coconino County, Arizona (2004)
SRP proposes to undertake a maintenance project on the water intake system for the Navajo Generating Station (NGS) near Page, Coconino County, Arizona (Figure 1). The purpose of the project is to ensure the future availability of cooling water for NGS operations due to the continuing decrease of the water surface elevation of Lake Powell associated with the ongoing drought. The full pool elevation of Lake Powell is 3,700 feet above sea level. Current projections indicate the lake surface...

Prehistoric and Historic Steps and Trails of Glen Canyon-Lake Powell (1977)
Prior to the flooding of Lake Powell and the establishment of Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, an ambitious salvage program was completed by The Museum of Northern Arizona and The University of Utah. Many instances of prehistoric and historic steps and trails were recorded. While conducting shoreline ecology research, we became interested in the trail system as disclosed by the steps and trails still evident along the shore. Steps, as pecked by stone tools or picked by metal tools, and...
