Drove down here today specifically to look for prehistoric sites, and located one. Turned out to be harder than I thought. I figured I would just look for that red and yellow jasper they quarried and used for tool making. Find it I did, and quality stuff. But it turns out that rock is all over the ground here. And most of it was naturally chipped up, not by man. The clue I needed was when I found some flakes of a type of white quartz in one area. This material doesn't flake up naturally, and it doesn't occur here; it's the type from a prehistoric quarry over south of Hartsel. Couple other items of interest at the site that got my interest, but I'll have to do a little more study and research before I can comment on them. You could probably find some arrowheads here if you took the time and walked the ground. The camp site is in one of these pics if anybody wants to go look.
