LA 176865 is a residential camp situated atop a ridge overlooking Clayton Basin. Residents likely chose this spot for the ability to oversee the surrounding landscape, as well as its proximity to the Sierra Blanca mountain peak. Ancestors may have lived at this site for longer periods of time while still retaining their mobile ways of life, like living in wickiups. Settling in this semi-permanent camp would have enabled residents to take advantage of local resources, while still retaining their ability to move with the seasons.
