There is a village site on Gourd Creek bottom, at the foot of Lost Hill, and a little below the cave. Three small earth mounds are plowed nearly level.
A small village site is located on the east bank of Little Piney, half a mile below Gourd Creek.
In the bluff facing Little Piney, a mile below Gourd Creek, on the opposite side, is a small, shallow cave with a low roof. Water cracks on the floor show that it is sometimes flooded. No signs of use are apparent.
On the hill over the cave just mentioned is a cairn, now destroyed.
