Comments
GbTn-1, Grassy Bay: It measures 57 x 60 m with an average depth of 1 m, for a volume of 2420 cubic m, of which 2% has been excavated. The surface shows no indication of structures or other features. It is one of four Prince Rupert sites with an analyzed faunal assemblage, but the vertebrate record cannot be specifically related to the four radiocarbon dates.
