Boy have I been missing T-Net and artifacts. Watching everyone posting and not having time to go was killing me. We have been flooded all winter but the water dropped and it was 32 degrees when I hitched the boat this morning.Just perfect. There are hundreds of trees down and washing out from the floods. I saw one boat all day and got a picture of his catch. For me it was a great day. I have not even attempted typology on all of these other than being stoked on getting the little Hamilton triangular. I hunted over a 10 mile stretch of friends muddy fields. Please feel free to give opinions on the one particular hornstone point from the insitu. Thanks everyone. Its good to be back !

I didn't even notice that one, what's going on towards the tip, is it reworked? looks Dalton to me too.

No re-work. Its broke and has a step in the break. The other side has a small fire pop. Crazy thing is that piece was over a mile away from the clovis. I would have been happy with a nice dalton :)

wow TnMtns, very nice, Ive been busy and not had time to spend on a computer other than rebuilding them lately, decided to look here and see what Ive been missing. WoWWWW is all i can say. Ive been down on a couple rivers/lakes in E. Tenn the last few months but only found a few small triangle points so far.
The best Ive done was at Rankin bottom off of the Douglas LakeMan Im hoping I can get some time soon to go look or dig somewhere, Im itching for a good hunt.
All this snow/rain/water might make for a great spring this year.
Man Im at least glad I get to see some good ones going on.........
Good luck...
