Didn't find that elusive Folsom, Midland or Goshen I've been shooting for but found a few neat scrapers and a couple point fragments.

The base is either an Oxbow or Long Creek. The tip section I think might be Paleo....maybe Agate Basin....tough to say though.

The one scraper I'm almost sure is Folsom (the one with the big spur) since a found it right near where I previously found a Folsom tip. 20190918_080708.jpg 20190918_080731.jpg 20190918_080800.jpg 20190918_080825.jpg 20190918_080845.jpg 20190918_080901.jpg

Those are some really nice scrapers. I like the patina on that point mid-section piece.

I didn't catch where you are hunting.

Texas? The West?

Lovely and tantalizing finds.

A couple of classic paleo end scrapers with the spur, so you are hunting the right deposits.
There's Paleo where I'm hunting.....just haven't found any points or fragments lately. I've gotten Folsom, Midland and Hell Gap from this spot. Gotta be a full one there somewhere!

I believe that maybe you did. The bottom left frag. looks like it could be a a Midland mid section to me.

I'm thinking Agate Basin or Hell Gap. It's a bit too big for a Midland. The flaking is more percussion than pressure flaking.
