Nice finds, and beautiful triangle. Is that point made out of agate? Very cool finds as usual.

I welcome you to do it on this topic

where does clear obsidian come from?

I wish I could post those, Larson, but I'm computer stupid still....I'm lucky to be able to login to get to TN...in answer to your question tho, clear obsidian come from the great basin area of the NW...
