Ohio River find......12/13/11

[Swims with Beaver]

We went out again on Monday just for something to do. I saw a tiny speck of flint in the sand, poked it and it didn't move. I pulled it out and for a second thought it was just a big chunk. I cleaned it off and was super stoked. Found 2 of my nicest blades in 2 days. Here's a few pics after getting home and cleaning it up. Thanks for looking and good luck out there.

We looked at the black one under 20 and 40 x magnification and you wouldn't believe the tiny crystals that cover it. The hole is full of them. Really cool. Thanks for the replies. Good luck out there.

Todd?? Nah, not Reno. It's a spot my father-in-law told me to check out. Found a couple nice old medicine jars there yesterday and gave them to my brother. He likes to collect old bottles. I'd still like to see that dovetail you found a few months back.
