Got out for awhile today to a site that had lots of fur trade history. I've put quite a few days at this place and my finds have been few due to the fact that it has easy access and people have been dumping trash there for years since. After about 3 hours of fighting the bush, trash, and bugs I sat down on a log, had a drink of water and contemplated switching locations. I looked at a depression in the ground about 10 yards away and thought I'd better check it out. Well I'm sure glad I did because my luck changed right away, I dug a signal in the loose soil, reached my hand in and I knew I had an axe head, I pulled it out and was quite pleased. I got another chunky signal about 2 feet away and pulled out the second axe head. As you can see by the pictures it looks as though it was broken and re-purposed as a wedge. I also found a broken spoon, small buckle, button, and what looks like a piece of barrel hoop. I havn't cleaned up the axe heads yet but am hoping I can find a makers mark. Thanks for looking and hh.
