Just a bit of history about it.Several years ago an associate contacted me about "Proofing" a claim for him. It was located about 60 miles from the closest town and was in a narrow canyon. I arrived with another friend at the town and finalized the arrangments. We drove out to the clam and started our work. The clam showed good sign and also had some promise, not going to get "Fithy" rich but would do well. We searche out several area's and found an old foundation of what appeared to be a cabin. By all appearances it had been burned to the ground. Started to do a little detecting around it and uncovered Gobs of shell cassings, 30-30, 45 long colt, 45-70 etc. Also dug up several pices of leather with buckles on them, old tin ware and found hundreds of arrow heads. Some old knives and a couple of old pistols. This Tomahawk/ax was located near the back of the building's foundation near the rocky overhang. It was uncovered while diging another target. There were other things found also but time precludes me from going on. Desert Eagle
