Concerning information about the Donner party excavations. Anita is correct about Bruce Hawkins being involved at one point. Bruce was involved in the excavation of the Donner-Reed site in the area close to the Salt Flats near the Great Salt Lake in Utah and a book was produced. The title of the book is "Excavation of the Donner-Reed Wagons: Historic Archaeology along the Hastings Cutoff". Hope this helps. The call number in our library is F832 .G7 H38 1990.
