Today we started down the third finger of Slickhorn in the snow. We thought we might make it to the main wash, but the way was steep and very slippery. Plus, there were distractions. First, we stopped to look through a series of lithics and sherds that yielded this broken point (below).
Then, we walked the rim for a mile until VSO noticed a very nice glyph panel (below). In between, we found a series of sites that once held more than a dozen granaries made of mud. I was calling them "bee-hives," and most of them are gone now, but we found one that was intact and we also found the chunks of cement-like mud that held the others together. Pretty soon it was time to turn around so that we could make it back to the pavement before dark.
