In June 2003, a team of U.S. Forest Service archaeologists and PIT volunteers spent five days in the Picketwire Canyonlands--a spectacularly remote and rugged area containing a great variety of prehistoric and historical-period sites. PIT volunteers helped search portions of the canyon for cultural evidence and prepare detailed records of what was discovered. This web site highlights some of what the PIT volunteers experienced during their week in the Comanche National Grasslands located in Southern Colorado.

The contents of this site do not represent the views of the U.S. Forest Service or its employees. The writing, photographs, and design of this web site were completed by Lynn Lary and Barbara Rudy, PIT volunteers on the 2003 Picketwire Survey.
