The Midwest Archeological Center would like to thank the many people on the Fort Union Trading Post NHS staff who assisted with the 2002 survey project. Superintendent Andy Banta was a wonderful host and was always supportive and interested in our work. Daniel Mason, Kenneth Hart, Mike Casler, and Lauren Yellowbird alternated as survey crew members and made valuable contributions toward the completion of this project. Thanks to Chief of maintenance, Lynn Heiser for his assistance and mowing the relatively large survey areas on short notice. MWAC would also especially like to thank Volunteer In Parks (V.I.P.) John Banks. His enthusiasm and hard work were an important asset during this survey. Without his help the successful completion of the 2002 project might not have been possible.
