"In June 2011 a team of archaeologists from the Oregon Archaeological Society and CultureWatch Northwest surveyed, photographed, and recorded the important ancient Indian rock art at the Minnie's Gap, Wyoming site.
The Minnie's Gap site was first scientifically surveyed and reported in 1962 by the University of Utah in conjunction with the construction of the Flaming Gorge Dam and Reservoir. In 2011, Archaeologist and Team leader Dr. James D. Keyser recognized two of the drawings in the report as important Fremont Culture (ca. AD 700-1200) symbolism and organized the project to professionally study them.
The team (below) sincerely appreciates the cooperation of landowners Pat and Pauleen Baker of Dutch John, Utah who allowed us to access the site and we dedicate this volume to them."
