I searched for the first time for Indian artifacts. Searched along a wash for 1.5 hours. No luck. I'm guessing it will be very hard to find an arrowhead. Also, not sure if I have the patience this hobby will require.
I do know the Hohokam did inhabit the area I was looking in. However, I'm sure most of their dwellings and activities were in the Tucson basin which is where the City of Tucson now is. I was searching about 10 miles West of Tucson(on the other side of the mountains). The Hohokam may have only rarely visited the area.
Attached is a pic of an interesting rock. It is 8" long.

Keep after them, they’re out there. It takes time and patience. Finding a site takes time, once you find it, you’ll be filling frames.. finding the arrowheads is easy, finding the sites is the challenge…👍
 
look for a site, on the side of a hill, not the top, that sticks out and has a good 180 plus degree view. these places were good spots to rest, camp and keep a look out for game or dangers.
