Excepting the bees..... that looks like a great day! Very cool finds.
 

DUDE its raining finally.Hopefully it'll work out and you can get up here this weekend.
Thanks for the replys folks.It's an interesting site.I find these areas that are hot spots as we've dubbed them usally start out finding heated sandstone then large chunks of flint hardly any small flakes another odd thing usally no matches of brokes they seem to be seperated for some odd reason and another odd thing is i find alot more bases than tips.All of this stuff was 2 to 3 inches deep and 1 blade was a surface find.Keep on looking.

I laid it on the stump for ya better bring the jeep lol.take it easy my brother.ahh the morning dew...
 

Hey creek second 1 down on left might match the tip you found i didnt check them yet maybe today,i'll let ya know...
 

Can't wait for the leaves to fall, so I can do my chores at home and try creek hunting .Off to Lowe's to get matrial to make a shaker.
 

Did you know that some old timers still use the bladlets for cap and ball guns.Really cool love to find the arrowheads they came off of thanks for the view
 

Maybe a re-tool camp. The tips broke off in use so they save the shafts, dicard the bases and make new points for the shafts. Large chunks could be cores points were struck from and sandstone just rocks from a fire ring. Just a theory. Good pics for sure, Thanks
 

Hey Pick nice haul when you find spalls like that I always thought they saved them for later and the brokes also rework them.

Howard ;D
