This collection contains the abstracts of the papers presented in the session entitled "Research Hot Off the Trowel in the Upper Gila and Mimbres Areas" at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.

The Upper Gila and Mimbres region continues to be one of the most active areas of fieldwork in US Southwest archaeology, with numerous projects affiliated with different institutions investigating sites dating throughout much of the prehispanic sequence. In this session, researchers from ongoing field projects in this region present preliminary results and discuss their implications for craft specialization, food preparation and storage, religion, settlement pattern, mobility, and other research topics of broad interest.
