Lowest sheet is Rat Creek Tuff, which is nonwelded throughout but grades upward from light-tan rhyolite (~74% SiO2) into pale brown dacite (~66% SiO2) that contains sparse dark-brown andesitic scoria. Distinctive hornblende-rich middle Cebolla Creek Tuff contains basal surge beds, overlain by vitrophyre of uniform mafic dacite that becomes less welded upward. Uppermost Nelson Mountain Tuff consists of nonwelded to weakly welded, crystal-poor rhyolite, which grades upward to a densely welded caprock of crystal-rich dacite (~68% SiO2).

    Richard Dallin Westwood: Sheriff and Ferryman of Early Grand County

    Richard Dallin Westwood: Sheriff and Ferryman of Early Grand County BY JEAN M. WESTWOOD ON FEBRUARY I7, I889, RICHARD DALLIN WESTWOOD, twenty-six years old, left Mount Pleasant, Utah, bound for Moab, a settlement in the far eastern edge of what was then Emery County. He was looking for a piece of farm land on which he could build a home for himself, his young wife, Martha, and their baby daughter, Mary Ellen. It was just ten years since the first permanent settlers had moved into "Spanish Valley" by the Grand (Colorado) River in the southeast part of the territory. The valley had long been part of western history. Mrs. Westwood lives in Scottsdale, Arizona. Above: Richard Dallin Westwood, ca. 1888. All photographs accompanying this article are courtesy of the author. Richard Dallin Westwood 67 Indian "writings" are still found on the rocks. Manos, metates, arrow­ heads, stone weapons, and ancient bean, maize, and squash seeds have all been frequent finds throughout the area, attesting to early Indian cultures. The Spanish Trail through here was used first by the early Span­ iards as a route from New Mexico to California.^ Later it was used in part by Mexican traders, trappers, prospectors, and various Indian tribes. The first party traveling the entire trail apparently was led by WiUiam WolfskiU and George C. Young in the winter of 1830-31.2 In 1854 Brigham Young sent a small expedition under William D. Huntington to trade with the Navajos and explore the southern part of Utah territory. They used this route. The next year Young called forty- one men under Alfred N.

Broadhead1 and Glen Jones2 1 Principal Petroleum Geologist and 2 Assistant Director for Computer/Internet Services New Mexico Bureau of Geology and Mineral Resources, a division of New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology, Socorro, NM 87801 ABSTRACT The Chupadera Mesa region encompasses 3900 mi2 in eastern Socorro and western Lincoln Counties, central New Mexico. The area includes varied geological elements including the broad Jornada del Muerto Basin in the west, and the Oscura Mountains and Chupadera Mesa in the medial area. The Laramide-age Sierra Blanca Basin and several isolated mountain ranges formed principally by Tertiary-age igneous intrusive bodies occupy the eastern third of the region. The Chupadera Mesa area has been sparsely drilled. A total of 45 wells have been drilled within the project area. This is a density of approximately one well for every 85 mi2. Many of the wells are shallow and reached total depth in Permian strata. Only 20 wells have been drilled to Precambrian basement. This is a density of one well per 200 mi2, or 6.4 townships. Neither oil, natural gas nor helium production have been established. Nevertheless, several of the wells have encountered promising shows of oil, natural gas, and helium.

    Tribal Perspectives on the Hohokam

    Bulletin of Old Pueblo Archaeology Center Tucson, Arizona December 2009 Number 60 Michael Hampshire’s artist rendition of Pueblo Grande platform mound (right); post-excavation view of compound area northwest of Pueblo Grande platform mound (above) TRIBAL PERSPECTIVES ON THE HOHOKAM Donald Bahr, Ph.D. Professor Emeritus, Arizona State University The archaeologists’ name for the principal pre-European culture of southern Arizona is Hohokam, a word they adopted from the O’odham (formerly Pima-Papago). I am not sure which archaeologist first used that word. It seems that the first documented but unpublished use is from 1874 or 1875 (Haury 1976:5). In any case, since around then archaeologists have used their methods to define and explain the origin, development, geographic extent, and end of the Hohokam culture. This article is not about the archaeologists’ Hohokam, but about the stories and explanations of past peoples as told by the three Native American tribes who either grew from or replaced the archaeologists’ Hohokam on former Hohokam land. These are the O’odham, of course, but also the Maricopa and Yavapai. The Maricopa during European times (since about 1550) lived on lands previously occupied by the Hohokam and Patayan archaeological cultures, and the Yavapai lived on lands of the older Hohokam, Patayan, Hakataya, Salado, and Western Anasazi cultures – to use all of the names that have been used, sometimes overlappingly, for previous cultures of the region. The Stories The O’odham word huhugkam means “something that is used up or finished.” The word consists of the verb huhug, which means “to be used up or finished,” and the suffix “-kam,” which means “something that is this way.” Huhug is generally, and perhaps only, used as an intransitive, not a transitive, verb.

    Book Cliffs the Book Cliffs Rise As If Startled out of the Mancos Shale Desert

    !People of the Book Cliffs The Book Cliffs rise as if startled out of the Mancos Shale desert. This bright edge stretches east-west, two hundred miles between Grand Junction, Colorado and Price, Utah, stair-stepping four thousand feet up from the desert to a summit that’s cloaked in aspen, fir, and spruce. Erosion has dissected the cliffs into isolated canyons, carved by intermittent streams that all flow south toward the Colorado River. Even so, the cliffs and canyons are considered part of the !Uinta Basin because their rock layers, like the Green River Formation, are tilted north. Pockets of true wilderness still exist within the Book Cliffs. Black bear, bighorn, mule deer, and cougars are at home in these canyons. People have lived in and moved through this country for thousands of years−the Utes most recently, the Fremont before them, and the enigmatic Barrier !Canyon people with their alien pictographs staring at us as if from outer space. Wolf Bennett and his daughters came here from Colorado to see the pictographs and to clamber around the rocks of Sego Canyon. Wolf’s spent his life as a guide and values what these canyons !offer his family−opportunities to discover, a diversion from cityscapes, a sense of wonder. A mile down canyon, Bob Holloway and his two adopted children were watering fruit trees at the ranch he’d recently bought. The roof needed work. Bob and his wife wanted to get out of the rat race in Green River. That town’s population of 900 might swell if a proposed oil refinery and nuclear power plant are built.

    Personal Recollections of Early Denver

    Personal Recollections of Early Denver .J OSEPII EMERSOX S11nTn* Recollections, like everything else, must have a beginning, and my first memory of early Denver has to do with a Fourth of .July Christmas. It has remained vivid, unforgettable, undoubtedly because of th<:' successive shocks to the sensitive ear drums of a small child. Tt was prior to the Chinese riot of 1880 and the large Chinatown of the city, extending from Sixteenth along vVazee and Vlynkoop streets and directly in the rear of the American House for seYeral blocks, was a busy mart, a growth of the steady immi­ gration of the "Celestials" to Colorado, where thousands had been, and still were, employed in placer mining around Central City, at Fairplay, Tarryall, California Gulch, and other gold camps. Chinatmn1 was their suppl~' source. Here \Yere silk and clothing shops, stores of exotic atmosphere with shelves crowded with im­ ports, fine tea, spices, drugs, and foods from China, tapestries, fans, laces, and there were many laundries. Underground floors were tunnels leading to burrows and the larger rooms where Nepen- 1heized sleepers lay in bunks, the air sticky and sweet with the fumes of opium. 'l'he steam laundry hadn't come, and the Chinese had a monop­ oly on laundering. 'l'o homes all over the city trotted the tireless, affable, pig-tailed little yellow men in their blue-black tunics, flap­ ping trousers and felt white-soled slippers, delivering newspaper­ wrapped bundles. We " ·ere living at Coffield 's ''family boarding house,'' a spacious two-story verandahed frame residence where the Colorado National Bank now stands at Seventeenth and Champa streets.

    When Ms. Charlotte McKean Hubbs became Colorado State Regent, 2009-2011, she asked that I update "A Guidebook to DAR Historic Markers in Colorado" by Hildegarde and Frank McLaughlin. This publication was revised and updated as a State Regent's project during Mrs. Donald K. Andersen, Colorado State Regent 1989-1991 from the original 1978 version of Colorado Historical Markers. Purpose of this Project was to update information and add new markers since the last publication and add the Santa Fe Trail Markers in Colorado by Mary B. and Leo E. Gamble to this publication. Assessment Forms were sent to each Chapter Historian to complete on their Chapter markers. These assessments will be used to document the condition of each site. GPS (Lat/Long) co-ordinances were to be included for future interactive mapping. Current digital photographs of markers were included where chapters participated, some markers are missing, so original photographs were used. By digitizing this publication, an on-line publication can be purchased by anyone interested in our Colorado Historical Markers and will make updating, revising and adding new markers much easier. Our hopes were to include a Website of the Colorado Historical Markers accessible on our Colorado State Society Website. I would like to thank Jackie Sopko, Arkansas Valley Chapter, Pueblo Colorado for her long hours in front of a computer screen, scanning, updating, formatting and supporting me in this project. I would also like to thank the many Colorado DAR Chapters that participated in this project. I owe them all a huge debt of gratitude for giving freely of their time to this project.
