# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Lunchtime Lecture: Apex, A Northern Arizona Logging Camp 
- **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 11 Aug, 2025 at 12:15 pm – Mon, 11 Aug, 2025 at 01:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Join Dr. Emily Dale, Assistant Professor with Department of Anthropology, Northern Arizona University for this exploration of logging, railroads, human history and archaeology.

In 1928, the Saginaw and Manistee Lumber Company started a new timber lease on the Tusayan National Forest. The company established a temporary headquarters near the Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe's Apex siding to efficiently move timber from the forest to their mill in Williams. Nearly 150 men, women, and children made the Apex logging camp their home before the lease ended in 1936 and the camp was packed up and shipped to the next lease. Since 2020, the Apex, Arizona Archaeology Project has recorded the thousands of artifacts left behind by Apex's residents and mapped the former locations of the laborer bunkhouse, management family homes, the schoolhouse, and kitchen. This talk will discuss how the archaeology of Apex reveals the everyday lives of lumbermen and their families, the connections between the timber and railroad industries, and the impacts of the Great Depression, Prohibition, and other national events on Northern Arizona.
