"On the spur of the moment I decided that I would drive far west to Poston, right on the Colorado River, and visit the site. There are only two relocation sites in Arizona. I inquired at the CRIP Fire Station and the man gave me clear directions to one of the three sub-camps less than a mile away. I found it! The buildings are still there they are all fenced in, but still there! I tried to find the other two sub-sites but could'nt as the buildings have been torn down. I took two sand samples at Poston from around the immediate sub-site area." Gary Foster |
