Fort Davy Crockett: Browns Park National Wildlife Refuge (Colorado)
U.S. FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE: REGION 6 - CULTURAL RECOURSE PROGRAM Fort Davy Crockett?: An Archaeological Mystery Browns Park National Wildlife Refuge – Northwest Colorado Summarized from: A Report on the Results of Limited Subsurface Testing at 5MF5478, a Proposed Site of Historic Fort Davy Crockett, Moffat County, Colorado Kristen D. Kent and Mona C. Charles, Department of Anthropology, Fort Lewis College, Durango, Colorado December 2004 Introduction The follow excerpts are from a 2004 report documenting archaeological testing at the possible location of Fort Davy Crocket on the Brown’s Park National Wildlife Refuge. Many studies and much research has been conducted over the years to try and determine if the remains found on a bluff overlooking the Green River on the Browns Park National Wildlife Refuge are indeed those of the Fort. This research adds additional insight into the mystery. Fort Davy Crockett In 1837 three fur trappers, Prewett Sinclair, Philip Thompson, and William Criag, formed a partnership and reportedly built Fort Davy Crockett that same year. The Fort was named after the famous Tennessee frontiersman who died at the Battle of the Alamo in Texas the previous year. Kit Carson, another famous frontiersman, trapper and scout is reported to have been employed by the owners of Fort Davy Crockett. In 1839 members of the Peoria Party on their way to Oregon reported staying at the Fort. A description of the Fort was provided in the recordings of Thomas Jefferson Farnham, leader of the Peoria Party. He described the Fort thus: The fort, as it is called, peered up in the centre, upon the winding banks of the Sheetskadee. -

BROWNS PARK NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE Maybell
BROWNS PARK NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE Maybell, Colorado ANNUAL NARRATIVE REPORT Calendar Year 1991 U.S. Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE SYSTEM REVIEW AND APPROVALS BROWNS PARK NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE Maybell, Colorado ANNUAL NARRATIVE REPORT Calendar Year 1991 Refuge Manager Date Associate Manager Date Reg pproval Date INTRODUCTION Browns Park National Wildlife Refuge is located in an isolated mountain valley in extreme northwestern Colorado. It lies along both sides of the Green River, entirely within Moffat County, 25 miles below Flaming Gorge Dam. It contains 13,455 acres of river bottomland and adjacent benchland. The Utah-Colorado state line delineates the western boundary and to the south it shares a mutual boundary with Dinosaur National Monument. The remainder of the refuge shares a mutual boundary with the Bureau of Land Management lands. The refuge is 53 miles northwest of Maybell, Colorado on State Highway 318, 50 miles northeast of Vernal, Utah over Diamond Mountain, and 95 miles south of Rock Springs, Wyoming via State Highway 430 of 70 miles via State Highway 191 and Clay Basin, Utah. The primary purpose of Browns Park Refuge is to provide high quality nesting and migration habitat for the Great Basin Canada goose, ducks and other migratory birds. Before Flaming Gorge Dam was constructed in 1962, the Green River flooded annually, creating excellent waterfowl nesting, feeding and resting marshes in the backwater sloughs and old stream meanders. The dam stopped the flooding, eliminating much of the waterfowl habitat. Pumping from the Green River, along with water diverted from Beaver Creek, now maintains nine marsh units comprising approximately 1,430 acres.
