Hayes.  This survey filled in the gap between the first archaeological survey of Mesa Verde (Chapin Mesa) by Lancaster from 1951-54, and the second survey (Wetherill Mesa) by Alden Hayes from 1958-1960.  It started where the Wetherill Mesa ended (at the head of Long Mesa) and ended where the Chapin Mesa survey began (at the bottom of the east fork of Navajo Canyon).
