Had one of those "Paleo" hunts today! Me and a buddy went to my Folsom site where I found a really nicely made Folsom base, a Folsom preform tip and another graver. There was a few other odds and ends but I didn't bother taking any pictures.
After that we stopped by another one of my good spots and I scored a really nice 2½" Agate Basin.

Hey Mike, I love that rodent gnawn flaking on the Folsom pieces and the defining flute channel(s). Speechless over the Agate Basin. I know it made you grin big! Thanks. That KRF is a favorite of mine I'm sure you know.
 

Very nice base. Like Terry said that edge work is truly masterful. That AB is a killer for sure. Congrats!
 

That Agate Basin is just Grand! :icon_thumright: Must have been a cold outing?

Thanks Tdog! That Folsom edgework is beyond amazing on that base! I wasn't expecting to find anything at my Folsom site but it coughed up a few more again! I found the Agate Basin about 1/2 mile to the west of my Folsom site. I called my buddy over when I found it so he could see it before I picked it up....not too often you find Paleo, let alone complete!

Thanks Rg! I had lots of luck on my side today, that's for sure! Sadly my buddy only found a couple tools and that was it. It's a tough place to hunt....really gotta have your eyes peeled, except for that Agate Basin....that sucker was just laying out in broad daylight!

Thanks od! It was pretty cold, maybe 0 degrees with a good amount of wind so probably closer to -10 to -15 but you don't notice the cold as much when you're finding Paleo!
 

Those are awesome finds! Love that AB! It is amazing.
Thanks newnan! Every so often I get those multiple Paleo hunts.....I was just surprised I got Paleo at both spots!
 

The Agate Basin is a beauty, and the workmanship on the Folsom is phenomenal!
 

Keep on living the dream! I'm just glad you share the experience with us...
 

Nothing any sweeter then taking a hunt as far back as you can go. Fantastic hunt.
 

That Agate Basin is just plain awesome.

But that Folsom base is world class example, Lindenmeier Folsom quality.

Thanks chip! That Agate Basin was just a bonus after finding that awesome Folsom base.
