Summary	Pithouse C of Step House, a cliff dwelling in Mesa Verde National Park, is under excavation. The round pithouse has slabs of sandstone around its edges and several pieces of wood protrude from the dirt ground. Another smaller ring is sunken into the ground of the pithouse.

A group of men continues to excavate another area in the background.
