The purpose of the inventory is to locate, map and record all cultural resources found within the boundaries of the treatment units for this project.  A 5000 acre archaeological inventory was conducted north of this inventory area in 2019 within the 17, 000 acre restoration project area. 

The project area is located in southern Gallatin County, west of the Yellowstone National Park, east of the Idaho state line, and south of the town of West Yellowstone.  It is within the Hebgen Lake Ranger District boundary.
