在新墨西哥州的查科峡谷的Chetro Ketl，云杉（Picea）和冷杉（Abies）建筑木材的鉴定表明，在公元1030年至1120年之间，阿纳萨齐人将数千根原木运输了75公里以上。这些木材来自高海拔地区，可能在南部的山区（Mt.泰勒）和西部（Chuska山脉），在那里Chacoan相互作用已经建立。在这些山区的调查可能会发现这些史前伐木活动的物质证据。
Identification of spruce (Picea) and fir (Abies) construction timbers at Chetro Ketl in Chaco Canyon, New Mexico, implies that between A.D. 1030 and 1120 the Anasazi transported thousands of logs more than 75 km. These timbers came from high elevations, probably in mountains to the south (Mt. Taylor) and west (Chuska Mountains) where Chacoan interaction was well established. Survey in these mountains might disclose material evidence of these prehistoric logging activities.
