Good stuff man as always. I've seen a lot of your posts and your pulling good stuff out every time you go, I'm assuming your still between the shelters....I can't remember everything I've seen and I'm too lazy to go through backposts esp on your pics THEY"RE HUGE whats the best pc you've found there?? If you haven't stumbled across any axes pipes etc then you have to be feeling like something killer could pop out any second. I guess we always feel that way when hunting but even more so on a dig in a spot like that. Keep goin !

Great finds! Interesting the way the first piece cleaned up, was that just mud or something tougher to remove? Thanks for the view.

thx guys, sohio, Im gonna post the 3 best pieces from that spot in my opinion, 1 an axe, 1 is a pestle (1 of 4 from there.), and the last is a nice Benton. Ive gotten what I believe are about 8 Buck Creek points and a few nice Adenas. 2 Cobbs Triangular. Yea the last few digs have been slow about finding anything. plus the dirt has been froze so its a lot slower to move as well. Last month some a$$hole stole my sift from there as well, but yes I await the whole time I'm there for something cool to pop out.

Viking, that is calcium deposit, I was just looking around where I dug about a month ago and the rain had worn the wall some and about 3.5 feet down the wall of dirt that 1st blade was sticking point out about halfway out. this pic of it full of the calcium was after I had already cleaned it with a toothbrush and liquid dish soap. The after pic was after I dropped it into acid and it all fell right off. I love seeing all that nice detail and cant wait to get that stuff off to see what a treasure I really found. I take some pics of them sometimes with all the calcium on them so I have some proof if ever needed about them.
