Finally was able to find something leaves were every place but it was windy today so it helped in removing some debris from the surface. 1 Point and a tool and a piece of soapstone bowl (small) and some scrapers and of course some heart breakers in the mix. Some of these were from a past hunt that wasnt great just put them together. The flint is from today, there is nothing like the feel of worked flint in your fingers imo, rock

Nice finds , I agree about the flint If I find a piece when I first start hunting I will keep it in hand rest of the day

Awesome finds! Love the flint and pic #6 is a great shot of the worked edge, it's really cool! Love the soapstone piece too, wouldn't it be nice to find more of that?

I don't know what the item in pictures 5 & 6 is, but I like it. Looks like a little chisel. Heckacious material!

Definitely a cool tool, whatever it is, I'd be proud of that one

I agree looks like a Chisel or a flint Gouge of sorts. Sometimes we lose site of tools like what they were used for. They would of needed something to chisel out the stone bowls with. I think its Archaic period at least. Where it was I must of walked past it a few times this year already must of had a leaf on top of it. Found the strange black tool only feet from the other one. I love tools

Nice finds and love the white quartz!

I enjoyed finding the point I did find another but it was beat up real good couldnt get a decent pic of it. It was a quartz with yellow stripes running through it maybe a scraper but has damage on the edges.
