Directions: 

This site is located along the crest of the dune in the vicinity of chain markers 15440 and 15520.

SiteComments: 

The site consist of several dense shell midden scatters, and more middens exist beneath the current surface. The location of the middens suggest that there is a spatial component to the site. The shell consists of brown mussel and oyster. A fireplace was observed with burnt shell and bone, along the western margins of the site. The shell and bone are well preserved. Several pottery fragments were also recorded.
