SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds the following:
            (1) Chimney Rock in Southwestern Colorado contains 
        nationally significant archeological, geologic, biological, 
        cultural, educational, recreational, visual, and scenic value.
            (2) The unique, thousand-year-old Ancestral Puebloan 
        community located beneath the prominent Chimney Rock Pinnacles, 
        with its dramatic 360 degree view of the surrounding landscape, 
        provides an outstanding opportunity to enhance understanding 
        and appreciation of the prehistory of North America and the 
        accomplishments of Native American cultures during that period.
            (3) The Chimney Rock Ancestral Puebloan community is one of 
        the largest Pueblo II period (900-1150 AD) communities in 
        southwestern Colorado and one of the finest examples of a 
        Chacoan system ``Outlier''. The Chacoan system was a complex 
        system of interdependent communities bound by economic, social, 
        political, and religious relationships. Chimney Rock contains 
        many outstanding hallmarks of the Chacoan system and 
        significant archeological resources of other periods.
            (4) The design of the Chimney Rock Ancestral Puebloan 
        community incorporates Ancestral Puebloan knowledge of 
        astronomy. The twin Chimney Rock Pinnacles, for example, appear 
        to have served as a frame for viewing astronomical alignments.
            (5) Ancestral Puebloan culture is part of the heritage of 
        many Southwestern Indian cultures, and has influenced the 
        culture, art and architecture of the Western United States.
            (6) The Chimney Rock Ancestral Puebloan community has 
        special value for the Puebloan and Tribal people of today.
            (7) Chimney Rock provides a dramatic record of geological 
        and astronomical time.
            (8) Chimney Rock is a natural laboratory that provides 
        exceptional opportunities for scientific study in the fields of 
        geology, ecology, prehistoric archeology, and the ways in which 
        they interrelate.
            (9) Chimney Rock provides abundant opportunities to enhance 
        the understanding and appreciation by the public of the 
        achievements and ways of life of the Ancestral Puebloans, in a 
        rugged and spectacular landscape.
            (10) Chimney Rock has long been maintained through 
        community care and management. Volunteers and volunteer 
        organizations have provided outstanding educational and 
        interpretive programs and site stewardship, and have encouraged 
        academic scientific investigation.
