A piece of sandstone bedrock at the base of the feature was oxidized. Five pieces of FCR lined the upper edge, with a total weight of 400 gm. Fill contained 5 pieces of debitage, 1 unburned bone several charred goosefoot seeds, charred Cheno-Am seed embroyos, 1 charred Poaceae caryopsis; pine was the dominant charcoal; some juniper and pine bark.
