Summary

On September 21, 1978, the Museum of Northern Arizona conducted an archaeological investigation of site NA15,693, a narrow gauge railroad alignment originally recorded during surveys for the proposed Salt River Project (SRP) Silverking-to-Kyrene, East End, Transmission Line.

Rosenberg), State Historic Preservation Office (Frank Fryman) and Museum of Northern Arizona (Donald E. Weaver, Jr. and Ronald K. Yablon) representatives during an on-site inspection tour conducted on September 12, 1978.
