The Fish Lake Archaeological Field School was a cooperative venture by the US Forest Service, the Paiute Indian Tribe of Utah and the Department of Anthropology at Brigham Young University to understand the ancient and recent human history of the Fish Lake Basin in central Utah. Fish Lake is a deep lake with wonderful fishery and is very popular today for anglers. The sites excavated dated from about AD 200 to the historic period and were likely occupied by the direct ancestors of our co-workers. Students document wickiup foundations at Moon Ridge site.
