This document is the final technical report on the first phase of a multiyear archeological program conducted in Canyonlands National Park. Some of the purposes of this project are to gather information for upgrading the park's interpretive program, increase the scientific understanding of Canyonlands' prehistory, and prepare a research design to guide future investigations. Archeological inventory of 4500 acres in the Needles District revealed a previously undocumented Archaic occupation and showed that Formative peoples using the area were primarily the Mesa Verde Anasazi, not the Fremont and Anasazi as previously thought. The data also indicate that prehistoric peoples used the …

Surficial Geologic Map Of The East Cache Fault Zone, Cache County, Utah, James P. Mccalpin
James P. McCalpin
The 1:50,000-scale map shows surficial geologic deposits and the faults that displace them along the East Cache fault zone in northern Utah. The East Cache fault is a north-trending normal fault that extends about 77 km along the eastern side of Cache Valley (an east-tilted graben) at the base of the Bear River Range. The map includes a description of Quaternary deposits along the fault zone, a description of the fault segments, and estimates of the age, size, and distribution of fault scarps in the fault zone.

Mule Deer Diets On A Chained And Seeded Central Utah Pinyon-Juniper Range, United States Department Of Agriculture, Forest Service
Forestry
Study of the seasonal use by mule deer of some native and introduced species on a pinyon-juniper restoration project showed that woody species made up the bulk of pellet samples, followed by forbs and grasses. Land managers are advised on seeding and grazing practices for enhancing big game habitats.
Native Species Establishment On An Oil Drill Pad Site In The Uintah Mountains, Utah: Effects Of Introduced Grass Density And Fertilizer, United States Department Of Agriculture, Forest Service
Native Species Establishment On An Oil Drill Pad Site In The Uintah Mountains, Utah: Effects Of Introduced Grass Density And Fertilizer, United States Department Of Agriculture, Forest Service
Habitat Ecology
This study examined the effects of introduced grass seeding density and fertilizer on native species establishment on an oil drill pad site in the Uintah Mountains, UT. Differences in first-year seedling density and 3-year standing crop biomass among treatments were evaluated for seeded introduced grasses and native species and for unseeded colonizers. Aerial cover was measured all 3 years and the effects of fertilization on soil NO3-N, available P, and exchangeable K were examined 2 years after application. Recommendations for reclamation of similar sites are given.
