Buskin Survey


From archaeological excavation to survey with nary a break in between!  The dig ended on Monday and on Tuesday, still sore all over from backfilling the excavation, I was traipsing around in the Buskin River corridor helping out on an archaeological survey.  There will be some clean up work along the Buskin River later this year and it is our job to survey the effected areas and discover if there is anything historically significant that could get damaged.  Mostly we were recording stuff that had been left behind from WWII.

Rather than spending the whole spot in one place digging, it was nice to get out and explore for a bit. And it was a beautiful sunny day.  Surveying in the rain is a drag.  Patrick

We recorded everything we found
