Notes:  Prehistoric use of the Uintas at all altitudes.  (That’s a great summary statement).  “…all the sites were in the Uinta Mountains of northeastern Utah.  There was considerable variability in individual project purpose and execution, in site elevation and site function.  As analysis proceeded, it became clear that most of the archaeological assemblage dated to between 4200-600 Cal BP…The variety of sites provided an opportunity to examine how people from a particular period utilized different uplands resources, elevations, and settings as they made the transition to a more sedentary life-way.”  (From the Overview).
