Well, I finally found a clovis! The material is red jasper, but there is a small nick near the point.

Well, I finally found a clovis! The material is red jasper.

Welcome to the Clovis Club old digger.

Any Clovis is a super find but the colorful high quality material makes your Clovis a premium find.

Definitely one of the best Paleo points from the western U.S region I have seen posted on this forum.

Congrats!

What a beautiful color! Do you think the maker had second thoughts about using it because of it's unusual hue? Deserved banner!

Absolutely remarkable artifact! I voted banner too. IMO, this is one of the most archaeologically significant forms of evidence in North America. It doesn't get any better than that. Congratulations! 8-)

I got permission to check out a new area where I knew there was a good chance of finding some leaf fossils and in my hunt I came across a small spring. I found the point just above the spring on top of some mole hills. I am so sorry that I didn't have my camera with me as I was carrying some digging tools for getting the fossils and I just didn't think I would need it.

With fake knee's it is impossible to jump, but I assure you that I did the funky chicken Fetus style.

I think we would all be a little weak kneed if we found that. What a beauty! :thumbsup::thumbsup:
