During Interstate 70 construction in the 1980s, more than 100 structures were found near Sevier, Utah, dating from the 10th and 11th centuries. After hundreds of thousands of artifacts were excavated, the actual village site was destroyed by the freeway’s construction. Fremont Indian State Park was established to preserve the site’s treasures. Plus, an Arizona tribe plans to pull out of a deal meant to prop up the Colorado River’s largest reservoir. And later, a group of scientists and nonprofit leaders recently headed over Independence Pass in a small airplane, looking for places to restore beavers.
