New Creek and I Think It's A Good One

Closed the deal on some new hunting land and saw a creek that just looked good. I got in the creek at 7am and came out at 10am. I walked only a 1/2 mile up stream, but it was some tough going. This is what it looked like. Rodney 002.webpThis is what the rock bars looked likeRodney 003.webpI didn't go 25ft and came face to face with a large cotton mouth, he was going down stream and I was going up stream. I gave him his chance to move on but he wanted me to leave and since I had already started find pottery shards, I had to dispatch him with my 44mag. My first artifact was the best drill I have ever foundRodney 001.webpAfter finding other odds and ends I found this pointRodney 006.webpAround here when you walk most of these creeks you run into a lot of road blocks, like thisRodney 005.webpThis walking is not for the faint of heart. Well I forgot to bring extra batteries for my camera so it died, so I had to wait till I got home to take pics , so here is what I found in such a short walk.Rodney 017.webpRodney 016.webpRodney 017.webpRodney 019.webpRodney 020.webpRodney 023.webpRodney 023.webpRodney 025.webpRodney 026.webpThe bones are fossilized and the large pile of pottery is over 7lbs, the other ones have design on them . I think I will go back there. Sorry I double posted the celt.

nice finds congrats HH
 

What a walk you had. I dont know if I would even spend anytime hunting animals with knowing what else might turn up in the creek. Thats a great return.
Im sure most do this but I try to mark the area that I find artifacts so later I can go back and do a more close up type of hunt in the area. Especially where you found the pottery if it was all in one area. Ill be looking forward to seeing more finds from that property, rock
 

Nice drill and artifacts. Great news on the hunting land. You have found a really nice spot. I bet you find lots more. Kill a big one this year!

And Butcher it with a stone blade!

I have done that to prove a point to others how Native Americans would use just a stone chip. After flaking a large flake from a rock out of the drive way of the hunting camp, I skinned and quartered a whitetail buck with just that chip. It blew the city boys minds.:laughing7:
 

Now that's cool!
........ he gone...
