[5]For a very interesting account of this colorful character, see Look, 1961-62. My statements regarding Otto were taken mainly from this account.
[6]So-called buffalo are actually bison.

[10]Archaeological survey of Colorado National Monument, 1963, by George Stroh, Jr., and George H. Ewing, with laboratory assistance by William D. Wade. Unpublished duplicated manuscript, 62 p., map, March 1964. For copies of this and other reports or discussions of the subject, or both, I am greatly indebted to: Adrienne Anderson, Regional Archaeologist, Rocky Mountain Region, National Park Service, Denver; Bruce Rippeteau, State Archaeologist, Denver; John Crouch, District Archaeologist, Bureau of Land Management, Grand Junction; H. Marie Wormington, Anthropologist Emeritus, Denver Museum of Natural History; and Al Look, Grand Junction. Copies of this and other unpublished reports referred to are on file at the headquarters of the Monument.
[11]Many of the cliff faces of the Wingate Sandstone, and in parts of the Plateau other sandstones also, are darkened or blackened by desert varnish, a natural pigment of iron and manganese oxides, silica, and clay. (See [fig. 32].) The varnish is darker on cliff faces that have been standing longer. The prehistoric inhabitants of the canyon country learned that effective and enduring designs could be created simply by chiseling through the thin dark layer to reveal the buff, tan, or pink sandstone beneath. These petroglyphs were chiseled when the rock face was vertical; afterwards the slab fell to a horizontal position.
[12]The Fremont people were mainly hunters who roamed the Plateau around A.D. 850 or 900. (See Jennings, 1970.)
[13]Taken mainly from Colorado State Planning Commission, 1959, Hamilton, 1956, Beckwith, 1854, and Hayden, 1877.
[14]Taken largely from Dellenbaugh, 1902.
[15]Information regarding Kodel and his mine was obtained mainly from Al Look and C. Frank Moore of Grand Junction and Mrs. Irving C. Beard of Fruita.

[18]The Geological Survey has divided the Precambrian into, from oldest to youngest, the Archean and Proterozoic Eons, with the boundary at 2,500 million years. The two eons now constitute Precambrian time.

[26]Paul L. Williams, U.S. Geological Survey, told me in November 1978 that he observed H₂S-bearing spring water leaching the color from both the Entrada and Wingate Sandstones above Tabeguache Creek some 8 or 10 miles north of Nucla, Colo., and from the Wingate alone along Onion Creek in eastern Utah.
