| One of the methods used by landowners to clear the brush in the Choke Canyon area is to drag rail sections behind heavy chains. This effectively removes the brush to promote the growth of grass, but it sometimes has the unintended consequence of damaging shallow archeological sites. At other times, however, archeologists benefit from brush clearing. The Late Prehistoric bison butchering evidence at Skillet Mountain site was spotted after fresh exposure by chaining. |
