Archaeology and Cultural Resources
The Pike-San Isabel National Forests & Cimarron and Comanche National Grasslands is rich in natural and human history. Learn more about archaeological activities and the human history of the grassland.
Purpose of the Heritage Program:
To protect significant heritage resources, to share their values with the American people, and to contribute relevant information and perspectives to natural resource management.
In so doing, we will:
- Ensure that future generations will have an opportunity to discover the human story etched on the landscapes of our national forests and grasslands;
- Make the past come alive as a vibrant part of our recreational experiences and community life; and
- Connect people to the land in a way that will help us better understand and manage forest ecosystems.
