weekend finds,paid a visit to the heartbreak hotel

[creek astronaut]

Got out Friday evening for a couple of hours.Found a rediculous heartbreaker,made me sick when I walked up on it.It appears to be an early archaic corner notch maybe a large kirk made out high grade ridge.I guess it was a consolation prize when I found the decent bottleneck a few minutes later.Saturday I got out for about 5 hours and found 3 nicens.A lobed bifurcate that has a needle tip and is super thin,another bifi and a ridge hopewell point.I also found a broken lance and a nice uniface blade that was found real close to the lance.Found some brokes and a broken celt.Sunday I got out for a short hunt and scored a killer piece.Its the pink scraper/knife looking piece and it has a graver on it. Paleo?what u guys think?goodluck hunting.

Excellent finds! Are you sure your heartbreaker isn't a spokeshave? Maybe the pic was misleading, but it almost looks like it was deliberately shaped that way. Amazing materials used, as well!

Can you provide close-up pics of the top of the piece?

Yeah the heartbreaker in the first pic looks, from the pic, like it has been worked on the end

That little black point is PERFECT, I love it! And that scraper, is awesome!!!!! I want it

You had a great weekend, congrats!!

Great hunt. That first one would have been a center piece for sure. Nice bifuracte with strong work on it. Good hunt sir! Knife/scraper almost looks cobb'ish

Yup that Ridge piece would have been wonderful. The biffy's and Hopewells are very nice.

Is that a broken lance?? Ouch...

Well then, it's a true heartbreaker for sure. Hey, I can relate!

Another great hunt dude. That is most definitely a true heartbreaker but imo the rest of your finds make up for that one. Two nice bifurcates, can't really make at the flaking on the leaf shaped piece? Great materials and Great hunt.

thx dude,I would still trade all of them for that one to be all there.The pink blade is random flaked but it has that 45 degree bulb taken out of the base like you see on paleo, but it has a beveled sorta edge to it on one side like it was used as a scraper.Odd piece but it will look good in a frame.

Yeah, that is a shame for sure but, ya know how it goes.
