Specifications include, but are not limited to: Conduct a 100% pedestrian inventory of identified inventory area employing appropriate survey methodology. Transect intervals will be 20 meters or less. Steep landforms, such as rock faces, talus/scree slopes, and cliffs, should be inspected for the possibility of cultural remains including but not limited to human burials, rock shelters/caves, buffalo kill sites, and rock art. Transect intervals may be widened in some instances provided a valid rationale for intensity of coverage is presented to a CGNF Archaeologist. In all cases, coverage must be thorough enough to locate all surface visible sites. Document and record all cultural resources from all surface and exposed indications on Montana State Site forms and include sketch maps and USGS 1:24,000 scale topographic map locations. Record all isolated finds on the CGNF Cultural Isolated Find Form. Locate each cultural resource site and isolated find on USGS 1:24,000 scale topographic maps, and collect GPS site location.
