In September 2016, the Canyon Fire burned approximately 12,742 acres on southern Vandenberg Air Force Base. The wildfire impacted three rock art sites, but most negatively affected the Honda Ridge rock art site (CA-SBA-550). The northeastern side of the pictograph panel took the brunt of the fire impacts, resulting in extensive carbon deposits, micro- and macro spalling, and possibly host rock discoloration (Murphy 2017). This study, more broadly situated within the Honda Ridge Pilot Project,...

This report documents the condition assessment of sensitive and threatened sites on Vandenberg Air Force Base. The sensitive and threatened sites are cultural resources with high informational value and are important to Native American groups, such as the Chumash, and have active impact agents and/or the potential to be severely impacted. This report documents the condition of these sites using the new approach developed by Applied EarthWorks and Cultural Resources Section (30 CES/CEIEA) in 2009...
