"untouched by looters"

the govt, sierra club, leftist idiots, national geographic (now), other "we know better than you" types ....

It was not until 2002 that archaeologists realized the full significance of Range Creek.

If true, the universities are in even worse shape than them seem now.

A truely FACINATING read. Thank you so much for posting this.

[Dubya]

Very intresting.

I would love to see it. We visited Walnut Canyon near Flagstaff, AZ where Anastazi Indians lived 900 years ago and in the cliff houses the handprints of the women are still fresh where they used mud to line the walls of the rooms. I put my hand in one print of a right hand and it fit perfectly. Very funny feeling like touching someone from yesteryear today. They lived a nice lifestyle there in that cool wooded primitive place mmear a desert..

[Iowa Granny]

An incredible read.

This is great news. Now lets's see how well they'll keep the eco-terrorists away.

I wonder how much of the $2.5 mil Big Stupid Government will steal back in tax theft?

If this account is anything close to accurate, this will be a bigger deal than Mesa Verde National Park.

Pretty interesting. I am envisioning a large resort concept, incorporating condominiums, timeshares, theme park, retail complex, golf course/fitness center, and monorail system, all constructed in an "arrowhead-friendly" fashion, scheduled for completion in late 2007.

Good thing this man didn't let anybody in on his secret. Otherwise government would claim eminent domain and he wouldn't get a penny for it.

[Dog Gone]

That's not how eminent domain works. But he still sold this for a fraction of the revenues it's going to generate.

I hope it's true. I'm afraid I'm getting so old I'm just too cynical, these days. Now that I've had time to digest what I read, I'm having some doubts.

"... but in lesser numbers because of hunters. ..." they had to throw their dig in didn't they. I guess the people that lived there were all vegetarians and not hunters.. what the hey... ...not exactly fitting but... friend of mine has a shirt

I hope it's true. I'm afraid I'm getting so old I'm just too cynical, these days. Now that I've had time to digest what I read, I'm having some doubts.

You & me both. I felt the same way...hoping it's true, but not sure if it can be believed.

[JimSEA]

Great article! I would love to see it.

[kpp_kpp]

uh... i've driven through Green River, UT on I-70 -- i'm not too worried. it is a long ways to and from nowhere around there. it isn't marked on this map but i found range creek just north east of here on mappoint

i too hope this is preserved.

[hershey]
